Bird Survey at Kickerillo-Mischer Preserve - Bird Week 2022

Join us at a bird survey to enhance your birding skills and contribute to a wonderful community science effort to gather data that can help protect birds! Precinct 4's Kickerillo-Mischer Preserve is an 80-acre property featuring Marshall Lake, which spans approximately 40 acres, plus a staff building, paved roads and parking lots, restroom facilities, and 1.7 miles of trails. Our survey takes place on the third Monday of each month from September to May so you can keep coming back if you enjoy it! Meet at 8 AM in front of the restrooms.

About the Preserve: The preserve was donated to Precinct 4 in January 2009, after Kickerillo Companies and Mischer Investments acquired it from Hewlett-Packard to create The Vintage, a community in northwest Harris County. Ultimately, the property will connect with the 100-acre Wood Preserve on the opposite side of Highway 249 and become part of the Cypress Creek Greenway trail system, which connects hundreds of acres of parks along Cypress Creek.
