Northwest Community Park, Fort Worth

Thank you Bob and Judith for posting this. My husband was just as excited as I was to see a few Monarchs and Queen Butterflies. My husband and I went to this park today. It was very sunny and hot! This park has a long gravel driveway with big open fields on both sides of the drive that leads up to a concrete parking lot.
For all you nature enthusiast, if you visit in the heat and sun, take water, maybe an umbrella to keep some of the sun off of you, as there is no shade on the concrete walking path. It does have a picnic area. We walked over to a path by the parking lot and it looks over a small water fall and down below you can see fish and turtles in the clear water. The Lake is very clean and clear, you can see fish swimming around. I took pictures of little Perch or Sun fish, a boy was catching one after the other with his glow worm on the nice pier. Someone was out in a kayak. I took pictures of the Great Egret and different types of Dragonflies, like Black Saddle Bags, Eastern Pond Hawks, Blue Dashers, and a few others I have to upload because I am not sure what they are. I found lots of Grasshoppers. Different types of Plants native to the area. I did not see little insects or tiny bugs. However I did see one Wheel bug, my first one. It is a nice little park. It was peaceful and relaxing even with the heat. I could see where fall weather could bring lots of birds to this nice clean open Park. I am going to visit it in the Fall and again in the Spring of next year just to see what has changed or different birds and insects I might see.✌🏻

Yes! We talked about that our selves.

Sounds fun!
