Traveling a Bit

Been on the road the last couple of weeks doing habitat management work, which mostly involved cutting down Ash Juniper with a chainsaw and prescribed burns, and TPWD's Statewide Interpreters Conference. All of which were extremely educational and a lot of fun. In addition to the job though, I took the liberty of identifying plants I was not familiar with and even a few I was, just to confirm.

I had never been to Balcones Canyonlands NWR before. Spring hadn't quite made it there yet, so most things were still winter dormant. It was nice to see the Little Bluestem slowly but surely winning out against the invasive KR Bluestem.

Even around Camp Buckner where we were staying there were a lot of plants to be found and the associated pollinators. This is where I learned that butterflies are incredibly hard to photograph. At least with a clunky iPhone like mine.
