After a historical society meeting at the Rockdale public library, I went scouting for red ant beds hoping to find a Texas horned lizard for the 2023 Horned Lizard BioBlitz: Texas and Oklahoma (June 24-July 1).
Made a round through the park in the afternoon heat. Only a couple of cars at the park. Saw no one outside of a vehicle enjoying the day.
The welcome sight of a green shrub growing next to a tree.
It is hard to tell the difference between these chicory blooms and dandelion blooms.
