There are a couple of places we noted had the designation of World Birding Center in Harlingen. There was a place called the Harlingen Thicket WBC but there is also the Hugh Ramsey Nature Center. Both of these spots touted their World Birding Center designation. They are both unique spots to observe wild life and birds. We enjoyed the Hugh Ramsey Nature Center more. It seemed to be wilder and less in the middel of the city. The Thicket has walking paths that turn into paved paths and has the more mountain biker feel.
Both places were good to observe wildlife. The Thicket we saw several javelinas and observed only a few birds (time of year could be a factor). Hugh Ramsey we again saw only a few birds but it felt much wilder.
It is great that the local communities in the RGV have embraced this aspect of providing spots for migrating birds to find a haven for their brief respite through the area both south bound and north bound. It is also a very pleasant way to get some exercise for a hike in the outdoors.
We enjoyed both of these WBCs in Harlingen..whichever one lays the claim to this designation.

I had pretty high hopes for this highly rated place, but felt a bit disappointed by the fees (and weird theme park vibe). I don't like paying to see birds, as I've been birding nearly my whole life for free. At times, it felt like an overcrowded theme park, with rude pushy people. The added dimension of it being an "alligator sanctuary" with a feeding show, and some non-native tortoises made it feel even more like a theme park, less like a bird sanctuary, which is what we came to see. Most of the same birds can be seen for free by driving up the road to the SPI Visitor/Conference center and walking along their boardwalk. Less crowded there too.

Love the World Birding Center. Not only do you see many different types of unusual birds, but it is built with safety and customer convince in mind. Many walkways and ramps for viewing and very safely built.
Modern buildings with superior convinces such as shops, snacks, bathrooms for customer use.
I would recommend the World
Birding Center as a must see on South Padre Island, Texas.

This place is a lovely City Park so huge you can get pleasantly lost, and found again. Benches, markers, some labels on our native trees and plants, hosting such beautiful species. The only down side is some ignorant people who take van loads of kids in, each with their own plastic straws and tops in cups of soda pop. There are plenty of trash bins, which our resident Javalinas, coyotes, and huge Chachalacas don't disturb.
Notice the great care which various areas, like the Peace Circle, receive. Someone might be there when you visit, watering, working, pulling out invasives, our waiting to show you our special species. Did you know butterflies can't lay eggs on just any plant? We had the most lovely time, and saw lots of other couples, and families, enjoying Ramsey Nature Park, the Arroyo Colorado World Birding Center. Something's always in bloom here: your next love affair, naturalist hobby, joy. Bring your dog on a leash.

It was pretty expensive considering the number of birds we saw. Most birds were sea gulls, pelicans, or herons. There were a few ducks.

We have really learned to expect and take advantage of what seems to be a Texas tradition. That of putting natural areas in very accessible areas for the public. Here we found great trails for our afternoon walk. because of the time of day we came, we didn't see many birds but the area is such that i'm sure they are there at other times.

We needed to kill some time in Harlingen today while a business was closed for lunch, so we visited this site for the very first time. We are birders who do NOT travel the country for birding, but do go take a look when we are near birding sites. We are most familiar with South Padre Island convention center nature trail, the Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge, and the Sabal Palm Audubon Sanctuary. We only had time today to find that we were in the correct parking lot and venture about fifty feet down one trail to the first bird blind. We couldn't have been there more than five minutes, and had no binoculars with us. In our five minutes, we saw some smallish brown birds at feeders (no binoculars, remember), and then a green jay, and then an altamira oriole, and then a javelina!! Five minutes, almost zero effort! We will be back just as soon as we can with binoculars for a half-day trip. Can't wait!

Enjoyed all the different birds up close through the viewing shelters. Watched the javelinas taking advantage of the free food also.
