Rancho Cardinalis is located in the Texas Hill Country outside the village of Center Point that rests on the Guadalupe River. We acquired the ranch in 2005, built temporary living quarters in 2006 and our home in 2009. Our ranch is managed under a State wildlife plan. The focus is on Near-Artic and Neo-Tropical migratory & breeding Hill County birds. We also manage for small mammals and butterflies. The ranch is named after our most abundant bird – Northern Cardinal - cardinalis

New visitor to Oasis flushed all the birds
We have been seeing this Sharp-shunned Hawk around the ranch and it has now found the Oasis. While I am feeding the birds coming to my feeders, I am also feeding the Sharp-shinned Hawk as it darts into our feeding stations chasing any slow leaver and stops occassionally to get a drink.
