Our first opportunity to tour West Lake Road after hunting season comes to
an end. Wonderful morning highlighted by hoards of Sandhill Cranes
streaming overhead and a nice flock of Snow Goose. The numbers of waterfowl
on the lake is astonishing.
Tours seven days a week alternating between Laguna Atascosa
and Bahia Grande; call for reservations. 956-244-2019
