Brazos Bend

Brazos Bend State Park is one of our favorite day trips in the Houston area.

We had a good excuse to go this trip, because our friends Rick and Tony were here from Seattle:

It is a fairly short drove down from the city, but it feels worlds away when you get there:

It is probably best know as a place near Houston where you can always see alligators in the wild:

but there is also a large population of interesting birds:
