Mission San Jose

At the midpoint of the string of 5 historic missions in San Antonio is Mission San Jose y San Miguel de Aguayo. In 1720, the governor of Coahuila and Texas, the Marques de San Miguel de Aguayo authorized and funded the mission and a Franciscan Father named Antonio Margil de Jesus founded it near the… Read More Mission San Jose

Sunset Hike at the River

Saturday it rained almost all day, so I thought there might be a lot more water in the river where I hike occasionally. So Sunday afternoon, it was sunny and I went down for a hike. The trail was a little muddy but it wasn’t too bad. Just as I started my hiking I came… Read More Sunset Hike at the River

One For The Birds

This is a bird post. I don’t usually post about birds as I am not a bird photographer and I don’t have the equipment to be much of a bird photographer, but I chanced to catch a red-tailed hawk flying low over the park in the late afternoon sun and I got what I think… Read More One For The Birds

Melting Hike

It has been unusually cold in Texas, which you know if you have paid any attention to the news in the US. My household made it through without any real problems. A few days of mostly no electricity and almost non-existent water supply. If you want to read about how woefully unprepared the state of… Read More Melting Hike

The Tinaja Trail at Colorado Bend

Colorado Bend State Park has several trails that I have never hiked. I have been trying to check these off my list one at a time, but this park is a bit of a drive from my house (73 miles) so I can’t get to it as often as I would like. The park sits… Read More The Tinaja Trail at Colorado Bend

Autumn Butterflies

These pictures are from a month ago. I kept them aside and intended to get to them, but I got busy with Big Bend plans. I took them while just hiking around the neighborhood park with my Nikon Z50, which I like to carry as it is a very light weight camera. There is a… Read More Autumn Butterflies

Some Hiking Photos

September is here and it is bearable outside in the day now. I go out hiking and often bring my camera to see what I can get. None of these photos are stunning, but nice enough to hit the shutter button I think. All of these photos were shot with a Nikon Z50, which is… Read More Some Hiking Photos

Some Fauna and Flora

White Wildflower Close Up

I go out for walks in the early morning and sometimes bring my camera in case I find something to photograph. The animals are often more active at dawn and I can get some good shots. On Saturday morning I found a big white egret at the pond that wasn’t too afraid to let me… Read More Some Fauna and Flora

Two Random Photos

Dragonfly Close-Up

I have two photos that I recently took that I kind of like but I didn’t know what to do with. They aren’t part of a theme or anything, so I will just post them here. The first one is a sunflower in front of the setting sun. I tried to line up the sunflower… Read More Two Random Photos

Urban Wildlife: Heron with Crawfish

Heron with a Crawfish

On Friday morning’s walk in the park, I walked right up on a heron in the pond, so I grabbed the camera to take a picture and then I noticed that he had something in his beak. I couldn’t tell what at the time so I snapped away. Later, when looking over my pictures, I… Read More Urban Wildlife: Heron with Crawfish
