Morning walk 3/31/2013

I walked down to the picnic area this morning and as I approached the river bank I heard something splashing in the water near  the confluence .  I walked nearer and saw this.

Morning walk 3/24/2013

I haven't taken my normal morning walk in a couple of days.  On Friday I was out of town on a little day trip and missed my walk and then on Saturday my morning walk was walking behind a lawn mower mowing a friend's yard.

This morning I set off in my shorts and didn't brother checking the outdoor temperature.  After all it has been in the 80s and 90s the last couple of days.  It was a little cool and the wind was blowing so it got kinda chilly but not too bad.

I took another picture of the Yucca plant.  It has gone down hill for the past week or two but that is all part of Mother Nature.

The good news is that some more wild flowers are starting to come out.

Hopefully we will get some rain soon and then the wild flowers will really start to bloom.

Morning Walk 3/18/2013

It is starting to get warm around here.  It was in the mid 60s when I took my walk this morning.  On the path I heard some wild Turkeys close to me but didn't see them on the path.  Later I walked down to the river at the Picnic area and saw two of them close to the bank of the Salado but they heard me and flew off before I could get a photo.  I did manage to get a picture of some of the Ducks we have around here.  Most of the time they fly off before I can get my camera out.

We are starting to get some wild flowers come up but we would have a lot more if we could get some rain.

As I was writing this email, I saw three wild Turkeys through my window but something spooked them before I could get a photo.  The good news is that I believe the Charm is here since I am seeing more Hummingbirds.

It is going to get warm today, supposed to get up to 93 according to the liars on the local news.
