Bosque Del Apache, located near San Antonio in Socorro County, New Mexico, is known for the tens of thousands of cranes, geese and ducks who winter there each year.

Meeting location is at 8:30 am at the Visitor Center. We will car pool into the Refuge from the Visitor Center.

For those of you who want to experience the early morning fly in, plan to be at the Refuge before sunrise and please dress warm because it will be cold! Sunset is also a beautiful scene at the Refuge and with it being winter, sunset usually will start around 6:30 pm.

There is a $5 entrance fee per vehicle (Bring exact change just in case there isn't someone at the booth). Federal Duck Stamp and America The Beautiful - The National Parks and Federal Lands Pass are accepted.

Lodging: For those of you wanting to drive in the day before, there are lodging options in Socorro, New Mexico which is only about 15 minutes away.

After the tour, we can eat lunch at the Buckhorn Tavern or the Owl Cafe.

Welcome!

The El Paso/Trans-Pecos Audubon Society is a chapter of the National Audubon Society. We have a large territory, all of Texas west of the Pecos River ("Trans-Pecos"). Our members are found throughout the Trans-Pecos, but most live in the region's largest city, El Paso. Birds, birding, wildlife, the environment, and our community are the concerns of the El Paso/Trans-Pecos Audubon Society.
