I drove down to Brazos Bend State Park last Friday for a day of birding. The early morning skies were filled with ominous dark clouds, and for the first hour of the drive I was afraid I might have to leave the camera in the truck for fear of it getting drenched. But as I continued, much of the clouds and the haze gradually burned off and the rising sun appeared. By the time I had almost reached the park, I just couldn't help but pull off the two-lane highway to snap a few pictures.

This is so serene, beautiful! Love the windmill, it adds such a nice touch to your photo. :)
The clouds look to me like a team of horses galloping across the skies.
Lovely capture. Have a great weekend.
The windmill complements the beautiful scene. Such a relaxing sight.
Perfect shot! Hope the rest of your day went as good as it began :) Also love your shots of the herons - they are one of my favourite birds - only the grey heron lives here, but it seems to have a fine-looking cousin!
Looks like a great morning to do almost anything.
This is perfect. One of those shots that needs to be a calendar. I think the windmill makes the shot. =) Awesome site you have.
...beautiful photograph. The windmill is so nice. You had a good eye to stop for a photo when your realized the potential of the shot! So often we drive on through rushing to our destinations.
That is a wonderful shot of a beautiful Texas sky.
A lovely shot, what a beautiful setting.
