FeatherFest is an annual birding and nature photography festival held during spring migration in Galveston.
The 21st Annual FeatherFest will be held in April 2023. Annually, the Galveston Island Nature Tourism Council preludes this event with the Birding & Nature Photo Contest AKA FeatherFest PhotoFest which offers serious AND casual nature photographers the opportunity to appreciate the spring migration. There are even prizes!

Galveston is one of the top locations in the country for birding because it hosts a wide variety of habitats in a small geographical area where some 300 species make their permanent or temporary home throughout the year.
