Mark your calendars to attend Galveston Island\u2019s 25th FeatherFest Birding & Nature Photography Festival during the peak of spring migration. Galveston is one of the top locations in the country for birding because it hosts a diverse variety of habitats in a small geographical area where some 300 species make their permanent or temporary home throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose from 100+ expert-led birding and nature photography activities to beach, bay, Bolivar Flats, High Island, and more! Go by bus, boat, kayak, or drive your own vehicle for our meet-at-site trips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come experience spring migration, area charm, history, and hospitality in Galveston.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-festival field trips to be announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
