If you would like to see lots of exotic birds, shop for native handicrafts, visit Mayan archeological ruins and soak up the colorful culture of foreign country, you might be interested in a March 7-17 trip to Chiapas, the southernmost state in Mexico.
You can obtain detailed information on this region from Brock Huffman, speaker at the August 11 meeting of the Wimberley Birding Society, where his topic will be “Birds of Chiapas.” Set for 10 a.m. in the Wimberley Community Center, the presentation will cover the birds and people of San Cristobal de las Casas, situated in a scenic mountain valley at 7,300-foot elevation and surrounded by pine and oak forests.
