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

Painted Buntings Galore
This year has even exceeded last year's outstanding hatch of our favorite ranch bird, Painted Bunting. Almost daily we can see 3-6 male birds plus numerous females and juvniles. Perhaps as many as 20 plus members of this gaudy species.
