We watched the pigs going after the bird feed scatter Tuesday morning before leaving Falcon State Park. We left the U.S./Mexico border and traveled 149 miles in a northerly direction. We are staying at Wilderness Lakes RV Resort in Mathis, Texas. We are on site #30 for the next couple of days.
The campground has a nice 2 mile nature trail, several lakes, and water that we don't have to boil. Ferny Kat gave an ok approval for this campground. It has a little too many people and too many vocal dogs for our liking, but a nice place for a day or two.
We took a walk along the 2 mile nature trail and then some, enjoying nature along the way. We enjoyed our walk around the lakes watching the waterfowl and yard art around the ponds.
We saw plenty of bird species on our walk, including a Red-tailed Hawk, a Caracara, and a Red-shouldered Hawk.
Wednesday we drove less than a mile to Lake Corpus Christi State Park. There were a lot of campers in the campgrounds, but not very many people on the trails or around the lake.
After riding around the lake, we walked to the bird blind. We saw a lot of pretty birds, including one of our favorites, the Green Jay.
We checked out the castle/aka the original state park office. It had a lot of pretty cool views of the lake.
We enjoyed our walk on the Catfish Lake Trail, meandering through the mesquite trees and around the lake.
We ate our picnic lunch sitting at a table near the lake.
After we got back, Ferny Kat bailed out of the camper for some outside time. While I did a few chores, Lauren did the Ferny Kat watch. The noisiest thing at camp today was all the birds singing.
