Ladderback on the Trail

Big Yawn!
This javelina's photo was taken at the park's South Shore bird blind. I think, if irritated, this guy could get a good chomp out of anyone. Observe but don't annoy! (Photo by MikeHikes)
On the Trail
Not all of the trails are dirt! Lots of rock as well as some inclines. (Photo by MikeHikes)

Just a Meadowlark
First meadowlark I've seen this season - they used to be very numerous and very common. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Javalina on Lanky Lackey
Saw a pair of adult javalinas at the northern end of Lanky Lackey. They were resting on the side of the trail but when they saw us, they got up and slowly wandered off. (Photo by MikeHikes)

Look Over There
Along the fence line in what was once the O.C. Fisher lake bed, some wag placed a glove on a fencepost. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Nice Colors at the Park
Autumn is always a good time for photographs! Love the gold, red and orange colors. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Three Little Javalinas
Maybe not so little but they looked more juvenile than adult. Of course they spotted us first so I only have a picture of their rear as they wandered deeper into the thicket. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Just some type of Vegetation
Have seen these in huge clusters in the North Shore section of the park. Don't know what they are but they photograph well! (Photo by MikeHikes)
Survivors
A group that survived the latest genocide attempt by humans on the species Meleagris gallopavo during the month of November. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Looking Southwest on Dinosaur Trail
Just some of the scenery on the trail. (Photo by MikeHikes)
A portion of Turkey Creek Trail
Just a nice view along Turkey Creek Trail looking South. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Not a Meteor
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)
Looking North
This was taken near Cougar Outlook in the middle of the park. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Last of the Sunflowers
Was surprised to see this sunflower still in bloom and a moth sipping the nectar. (Photo by MikeHikes)
Monarchs Enjoying the Bee Brush
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)
Road Runner goes Hungry
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)
Road Block!
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)
Sunrise at the Park
A nice picture taken awhile back while staying at the park. (Photo by MikeHikes)
