Rio Grande Valley Birding festival
Harlingen, Texas
November 5th-9th

WELCOME! ¡BIENVENIDOS!

We invite you to join us in Harlingen, Texas for our exciting 15th Annual Rio Grande Valley Birding Festival. This year's Festival promises to be as rewarding and memorable as ever! With a combination of field trips, workshops, seminars, keynote lectures, children's programs, and a trade show, there is no doubt that there is something for everyone!

As always, our dynamic programs and activities are designed to be insightful as well as informative. Birding anecdotes will have us laughing at the many adventures birders experience in pursuit of their passion and maybe even learn how to become better birders from some of the best in the birding world. Backyard, novice and veterans will all find something of interest. Birding expertise will be expanded for backyard, novice, and veteran birders alike.

Of course, there is no doubt that the number one reason to attend the Festival is the opportunity to bird world-renowned hotspots with some of the best leaders in the nation! The Festival’s checklist consistently sports over 220 sightings each year and you never know when a rarity might show up.
