Jesse H. Jones Park & Nature Center

These are pictures taken on 12/28/2025 with the Canon R10 I received for Christmas from my beautiful wife Trace 😉 and daughters. At first I was nervous to take photos worrying they would not turn out well. Trace told me to just start taking photos and I did.

Red-eared slider
One of the first pics I took during our outing, was afraid at this point that I wasn't going to get any bird pics so went ahead and took this picture.
Woodpecker holes
Woodpeckers went to town on this dead tree.
Female Cardinal
Female Cardinal in the bushes.
White-throated Sparrow
This sparrow was another one in the bushes flying around.
Great egret
This Egret was across the water from us so I got the best picture that I could.
Great Blue Heron
I missed an opportunity to get a picture of it fishing but we walked up on a it a little bit later and I think this is a pretty good shot.
Great Blue Heron
Another shot of the Blue Heron.
Bald Eagle
Trace spotted this eagle land in a tree across the river. We were all super excited to see it.
