Hello, everyone.
We went for a walk at Bentsen State Park and enjoyed it very much. We went later than usual because the morning woke up very chilly--so it was around 9 am.
My favorite of the pictures we took (so far) is this shot of the Rosa de Montaña vines near the entrance:
We found a new bird blind (with roof and seating) along the Kiskadee Trail which runs in a straight line and crosses the center loop. (Hiking only, shown as a pink line.) Saw cardinals, titmice, orioles, kiskadee, of course chachalacas and green jays. Also javelinas at the older bird blind hut near the resaca. And a pair of coyotes along the road while driving over there.
The La Coma were in bloom and smelled wonderful. (Yes, for those excessively picky people: "la" is the article. But I think that when using a word from another language there's nothing wrong with going with that language's convention of attaching an article to the front. "Las Tules", anyone? And a lot of people refer to La Coma trees not Coma trees. Which sounds in English like a medical condition: coma. Disambiguation is a good thing.)
It felt so good to walk again. Probably did around 5K but didn't really calculate.
