The 400+ acre ranch is an original piece of the 1905 Rincon de en Medio Ranch and still holds the same beautiful, varied, and brushy landscape as it did over 100 years ago. The ranch is high-fenced and brimming with wildlife, which makes it an ideal refuge for local and migrating birds. The ranch boasts native mammals such as whitetail deer as well as exotic animals from multiple parts of the world, offering unique photographic experiences that can't be found elsewhere in the country.
At Santa Cruz Wildlife Photography, we offer much more than what meets the eye in the Deep South Texas thorn scrub.
