The Hans and Pat Suter Wildlife Refuge is located in Corpus Christi, Texas, in the southeast part of the city, near the Pharaoh Valley subdivision.
Birds
The wildlife refuge lies on the western shore of Oso Bay and is considered to be one of the best sea bird watching areas in the world. The nearby Pharaohs golf course also serves as a haven for coastal and migratory birds. Some of the birds regularly found in the refuge are pelicans, herons, seagulls, coots, egrets, spoonbills, and ducks.
