If you are a Bird Watcher or love birds, you will love the Highland Lakes Area in the Texas Hill Country.
Many interesting birds migrate through Texas and others spend the winter here.
The American Bald Eagle winters at Lake Buchanan. Boat tours go up the lake to spot the nesting birds along the shore. The eagles arrive in the area in November and leave for the north in March. In January the annual Eagle count is taken in the area. Seven very rare Painted Buntings were spotted eating seeds off of grass at a residents home in Floyd Acres on the west side of Lake Buchanan.
