Kristine Rivers

Author and Photographer

Kristine Rivers founded Birding for Fun in 2015, and is a popular tour guide and speaker whose enthusiasm for nature is contagious. A lifelong birder, she has been an area leader for the Brazoria Columbia Bottomlands Christmas Bird Count since 2011, and has been President of the Texas Master Naturalist Cradle of Texas chapter since January 2017.

Birding For Fun

Kristine’s trips are fun and relaxing, and a great way to enjoy nature with friends and family. Tour participants will ride in air-conditioned/heated comfort in our passenger van, where they will be able to get close views of the birds without doing a lot of hiking. These field trips are perfect for those who want to stay out of the weather but still want to enjoy nature, and for those with limited mobility.  Find out more on the Birding for Fun website.
