April is the peak of spring bird migration here at the Houston Arboretum. Tanagers, vireos, warblers, hummingbirds, and many others are flocking to our sanctuary on their journey north from Central and South America.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Are you wearing green today? We’re celebrating St. Patty’s Day by appreciating some of the Arboretum animals that sport green every day.

Right here, right now, in America’s fourth largest city, we get to experience the trans-Gulf spring migration of millions of songbirds, hawks, warblers, and countless other birds.
