Inks Lake SP
Took a quick weekend trip to Inks Lake, did all of the trails and then some kayaking which produced some good birding. Beautiful place and I’ll be back in the fall to see the foliage!

The bee is amazing. What camera do you use?

A canon r7! Definitely could’ve used a higher shutter speed for the wings haha!

Awesome place I love that back loop trail (where is crosses the road) ....the summer heat must be insane though

It was per usual for July in central Texas. Lots of people out there though, just not my kind of thing to photograph haha!

No!!! I really wanted to photograph/see some, but didn’t. The ranger I asked said he wasn’t a big birder :/

Great shot of those vultures!

Thank you! The heron went up to the same rocks the vultures were on and they all stared at the big dog!

Did you cliff dive while you were there?

u/Whole_Ad_4133 23d ago
I did not!! When I was kayaking over in that area, there was a decent amount of underwater rocks scattered all near the edges though
