2022 Map of Byrds

About this map

Lake Brownwood dominates the southeastern quadrant of this Brown County landscape, where the waters of the Pecan Bayou meet the developed shoreline of Thunderbird Bay. This area illustrates the transformation of the Texas backcountry into a recreational and residential hub, with a dense network of suburban-style streets like Windjammer Dr and Starboard Dr contrasting against the larger rural parcels to the north. Further inland, the small community of Byrds sits near the Windham Cem, while the northern reaches are defined by a complex drainage system including the Red River and Hog Cr. Evidence of the area's pioneer roots is preserved in the scattered family and local burial grounds, such as Triplitt Cem and Lost Creek Cem. The terrain is marked by hydrological features like Big Island and seasonal waterways such as Panther Cr and Rough Br.
