  1. Birding Adventures

Best of High Island Rookery

The High Island Smith Oaks Rookery is one of our favorite destinations close to home for bird photography in the springtime. This Audubon sanctuary is a fabulous place for closeup photography of Great Egrets, Snowy Egrets, Tri-colored Herons, and Roseatte Spoonbills courting, nesting, and rearing their new chicks. It can get pretty crowded with other photographers on the weekends in April and May.
