Houston Audubon World Travel

Rainbow Bee-eater, Iain CampbellHouston Audubon is delighted to partner with Tropical Birding, the same wonderful folks who volunteer as tour guides at High Island, to provide an exciting birding and natural history world travel program!

Each tour focuses on natural history, bird habitat, ecological systems, and habitat conservation. Destinations include China, South Africa, Australia, Ecuador, Mexico, Arizona, Cape May, and many more.

Proceeds from the travel program directly support Houston Audubon's habitat conservation, education, and advocacy programs. For more information about upcoming trips please contact Tropical Birding at info@tropicalbirding.com or call 1-800-348-5941.
