Today we went to a new Chinese buffet for lunch, it was pretty good. After that we went to Aransas National Wildlife Refuge and on the way passed a large control burn that was being done on the edge of the park. Cactus Jack is checking it out in the picture. We spent two or three hours there walking the boardwalks, the lookouts and driving the long tour loop. We saw many deer, one wild pig, lots of birds, and one gater which Judy spotted on a boardwalk. We also got to purchase a seniors 62+ $10 forever pass to national parks. Take advantage of that age!!
I have to correct my post of last Friday, we did not see a large flock of Whooping Cranes as they are not here yet. What we saw was most likely White Pelicans, possibly Snow Geese.
It was windy today and in the low 70s, much more comfortable!
