Brazos Bend State Park, Texas

This my Gramma Betty, mom JoAnn, and me standing under tree in Brazos Bend State Park. This was the only place with shade we found in the entire park.

This alligator was trying to hide in a swamp at Braxzos Bend. I was scarred to see this alligator. It eventually swam away.

This is a baby alligator I actually petted at Brazos Bend State Park. The skin felt dry, warm and scaly.

This is a gray herron in Brazos Bend State Park.
