Walk
Spring migration of Nearctic-Neotropical birds is a very exciting time to birdwatch in Texas. These migrant birds breed in the U.S. and Canada but spend the winter months in the tropical zones of Central and South America. Of the 338 species listed as Nearctic-Neotropical migrants in North America, 333 of them have been recorded migrating through Texas. This means that spring birding in our state can offer great sightings. And one of the best birding hotspots in North Central Texas is White Rock Lake.
