A Few Butterflies in the Medina River Upland Woods

Tuesday, November 27, 2012

Other than the American snouts that were feasting on the Condalia fruit yesterday along the Medina River Greenway, most of the butterflies weren't perching long enough for me to take their photo. Perhaps they sensed the impending change in the weather with another cold front approaching. However, I did manage to get a few photos:

The Upland Woods of the Medina River

It is worth noting that this section of the Medina River Greenway passes through beautiful wooded land typical of South Texas owned and maintained by the Land Heritage Institute. The Land Heritage Institute is a consortium of 15 organizations and agencies. It is "a living land museum on 1200 acres of open space along the banks of the Medina River on the far south side of San Antonio preserving, maintaining and interpreting 10,000 years of continual human habitation."

One Of Those Days / A Medina May Flashback

Wednesday, July 18, 2012

This was one of those days when quite a bit happened, except my walk didn't. One of the main reasons for my not going for a walk was that tropical downpours, some with very intense lightening, moved across San Antonio this afternoon and evening.

So, without any photos from today, here is a flashback to my walk west along the Medina River Greenway from the Old Applewhite Rd Trailhead on Friday, May 25:

A Medina River Medley to Begin the Memorial Day Weekend

Once again, this was a walk with more beauty and wonder than can be viewed in a single post without producing a total sensory overload. This set of photos communicates the basic feeling of the experience, but there was so much more. There will be at least one, possibly two, more posts of photos from this walk.
