Hardberger Park, Oak Savanna Restoration Area

Today's photos:

Bexar County is a great place to live for anyone with interests related to urban ecology and ecosystem restoration. The San Antonio River Authority (SARA), the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and the San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department all have major ecosystem restoration projects in progress in the county.

I'll go into a little more detail on these projects in part 2 of this post tomorrow. For now, I'll just mention that these photos were taken this afternoon in the section of the Oak Savanna Restoration Area north of the parking lot at the NW Military Dr entrance to Hardberger Park. This restoration area was begun a couple years ago and is now fairly well established.
