Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve

On Sunday, Feb 26, I went to the Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve with Terri, Alex and Lesley. This 227 acre preserve in SW Austin was set aside to retain a piece of typical cedar, oak and elm hillcountry landscape. There are several miles of trails and "reported" good birding areas. Instead of a morning trip, bad weather forced us to go in the afternoon. While we did see some birds, they were difficult to find, and even harder to get close to........kids on the trails may have had a lot to do with this. Even without the birds, the trails were nice and we enjoyed the walks. Maybe we will try this area again, later in the spring when the golden cheeked warblers are nesting. Sorry, no pics from this outing.
