A Goal Driven Organization

Kids at Fishing DaysOur organization has goals to accomplish. We are a dynamic group determined to make a difference. In 1999 alone, we contributed $2,900 to our Youth Education Program and $15,000 towards Prairie Restoration. We also assisted the refuge with new fishing piers, a handicapped accessible waterfowl hunting blind, helped refuge management host annual events such as our reading program and Fishing Day to promote awareness and education of the refuge and it's benefits. We have many other projects awaiting us. We would love to have your participation as well as your input on how we can better accomplish our goal to provide funds, volunteer labor, and in-kind resources to meet the needs and goals of the refuge.

Yellow Rail in hand being released on the Yellow Rail PrairieHosted annually by the Friends of Anahuac Refuge in the spring, the rail walks give birders and birdwatchers the opportunity to see up to five species of rails.

The goal is to provide an opportunity to see some of the most elusive birds in Texas, the Yellow and Black Rail. We also regularly find Sora, Virginia Rail, and Clapper Rail on the walks. Sedge Wrens and Seaside Sparrows are also often seen.
