Field Trips
The Panhandle Bird Club's Upcoming Opportunities to Bird with the Local Experts
The best way to learn the identities of the birds you are seeing is to go outdoors with people who have more birding experience than you do. Field trips are fun and educational and shouldn't be missed! We offer half-day and full day field trips in and around the Panhandle, as well as 3-4 out of town trips each year.
Lake Meredith in Fritch, Texas
Lake Meredith
Birding Field Trip
Saturday, November 15, 2025
8:00 a.m.
Lowe's Market, Fritch, Texas
Lake Meredith is a prolific birding hotspot in the Texas Panhandle that every birder should be familiar with. However, it is large and contains many coves, beaches, campgrounds, marinas, roads and paths. That's why it is helpful to go with an experienced birder who can curate the best places to look for birds.
The Panhandle Bird Club will meet at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 15, in the parking lot of the Lowe's Market, 316 E Broadway St, in Fritch. From there, we can carpool to several locations around the lake to observe the numerous raptors, waterfowl, gulls and songbirds that winter around the lake.
Bring water and snacks, your camera (optional) and your binoculars. If you have a spotting scope, bring it. It is always helpful to have one on this large lake. If you have never birded (or even visited) Lake Meredith, you are in for a treat. Bundle up and join us.
