October 21

The main road leading to the Willows area and Shoveler Pond was under construction and not usable. The Skillern Tract area was okay, lots of Black-bellied whistling-ducks, Fulvous Whistling-ducks and a small flock of Greater White-fronted geese. Will try the park on another day when the road construction is done.

October 3 A birding paradise..

A great place to see migratory birds, usually during fall. If you go in the summer, you will be sure to see some gators. Great place to go to relax for hectic Houston

November 8 Anahuac sans mosquitos! by T. Keefe

We went on Saturday, Nov. 6, 2010. What a peaceful juxtaposition to its big, dirty, neighbor, Houston. We saw several gators, a huge flock of geese and signs of bobcat. Worth the day trip. A full review here on our personal blog: http://innocentbystander.us/index.php?p=2_9

I like the aligators!

January 23 Best Gator View from your Car in Texas. by Dennis Eccleston

This park, along with Brazos Bend, is one of the best parks to view Aligators and, unlike Brazos, you can see them from your car. Also seen are bitterns, herons (including both yellow and black night crowned), eagrets, ibis, wood stork visitors and purple ganinoules as well as many species of duck and a few roseate spoonbills. The lake largely dried up over the last few years around the board walk but recent storms have helped.
