Although it may look like a meteor, it wasn't. The upper atmosphere was still and I watched as a jet left a contrail from one edge of the horizon to the other. (Photo by MikeHikes)

Was surprised to see this sunflower still in bloom and a moth sipping the nectar. (Photo by MikeHikes)

A few bee brush plants are blooming once again and the butterflies are enjoying them. I enjoy the vanilla scented blooms as well! (Photo by MikeHikes)

Came upon this road runner as he was hunting a tree lizard on the Lanky Lackey trail. The road runner went into the tree and the lizard was saved. (Photo by MikeHikes)

About 25-30 members of the Longhorn herd decided to rest on a portion of the Flintstone Trail. When I approached, they watched for awhile before eventually getting up and walking the trail in front of me, all the while depositing lots of fresh dung. (Photo by MikeHikes)

A nice picture taken awhile back while staying at the park. (Photo by MikeHikes)

First time I've seen one of these! I saw this one on the Turkey Creek Trail as I was heading back. Probably about two inches long - Note the ant caught on his leg (which were covered in hairs) (Photo by MikeHikes)

I'm aware of the feral hog problem in Texas but this is the first time I've seen feral hogs at the park. Photo taken at Cougar Overlook at 1:15 10/8/14. (Photo by MikeHikes)

Not everyone around here likes the mesquite tree but I do. The trees provide shade for me and food for all kinds of animals. (Photo by MikeHikes)
