TOPOGRAPHY: The elevations on the Cobb Ranch range from 200 ft above sea level along the Ramirena Creek bed to 270 above sea level in the southern corner of the property. The dramatically rolling topography leads to some spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. The Ramirena Creek bed runs from west to east throughout the property and remains a consistent travel route for wildlife. The soils are a rich, sandy loam with a few, small hilltops consisting of caliche and gravel outcrops. |

| VEGETATION: The Cobb Ranch features an ideal blend of almost every species of untouched, native brush found in South Texas. The primary brush, which consists of nearly 60% of the vegetation on the ranch, includes: Guayacon, Guajillo, Lime Prickly-Ash, Granjeno, Blackbrush, Coma, Texas Persimmon, Whitebrush, and many other species. The seasonal Ramirena creekbed is lined with a spectacular array of wildlife cover.
The ranch is home to some truly magnificent oak and bull mesquite trees; as well as, elm and hackberry trees. The ranch has been void of livestock for several years resulting in a superb turf of native grasses and quality regrowth ideal for quail habitat. |

WATER: The ranch is sufficiently watered with two water wells. One well,located on the southern area of the ranch, supplies water to the home and cabin. The second well, which is solar powered, is located in the northeastern area of the ranch, and supplies water to the adjacent concrete cistern; as well as by pipeline, to an earthen tank in the northern area of the ranch. |
WILDLIFE: The combination of good management and the bounty of mother nature have produced a wildlife paradise on the Cobb Ranch. The entire ranch is game-proof fenced. In addition to the whitetail deer that thrive on the property, the Ramirena creekbed offers many roosting sites for Rio Grande turkeys. The sandy loam soils generate a rich blend of seed sources necessary for outstanding bob-white quail populations. The ranch also provides hunting of wild hogs, javalina, and bobcat. In addition, the Cobb Ranch offers some of the area’s most outstanding opportunities for wildlife and bird watching for the non-hunting nature enthusiast. The ranch is in the central bird migratory path. The Highway 281 corridor region is one of the richest birding areas and most biologically diverse in North America. Over 495 species of birds come through the area, many of which are seen no where else in the United States. |
