Sibley Nature Center

Midland, Texas

Nature Centers

We believe that a person should be very familiar with their own home -- for it is the framework for patriotism. We give programs about the history and ecology of the Llano Estacado, and have a website (www.sibleynaturecenter.org) with over 425 essays about west Texas and over 2500 photographs in over 90 photoessays that show the world what can be found in west Texas. We are presently engaged in adding to our facility and trails via a succesful capital campaign, including a $500,000 challenge grant from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.

One of the Coastal Bend's major visitor destinations and leading nature tourism facilities, the 180-acre South Texas Botanical Gardens & Nature Center showcases 11 uniquely-designed floral exhibits and gardens, including the new screened Butterfly House and 800-plant Bromeliad Conservatory, acclaimed Orchid House and Plumeria Garden, plus Rose Garden and massive Rose Pavilion, Hummingbird, Arid and Sensory Gardens. Strategically situated along Oso Creek on Corpus Christi?s affluent south side, this unlikely blend of beauty in the wild nearly touches the northern reaches of the world-famous King Ranch, placing it in an intriguing wildlife corridor.
