Houston Audubon’s Bolivar Flats Shorebird Sanctuary has been recognized by the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network as an important resting and feeding location for migrating shorebirds from throughout the Western Hemisphere. Bolivar Flats is a unique area combining salt marsh, mud flats and beach, each habitat quite different from the other. Every year hundreds of thousands of birds discover that Bolivar Flats is a special place. We want you to discover how amazing this ecosystem is. FUN on the FLATS celebrates the birds and their habitat on Bolivar and highlights the critical need for protection and appreciation of this special place. JOIN US – June 12, 2010.
