Peacock Park

The weather in Austin was absolutely beautiful today - sunny and in the 60's.  Kat and I spent the morning at Mayfield Park, which is also known as Peacock Park.  Before tracking down peacocks (which weren't as abundant today as they usually are, according to Kat), I snapped some pictures of early-blooming flowers.
 Snapdragons and daffodils in February?  Man, I miss Texas.
 There are a couple of trails that meander through a wooded area and criss-cross a creek.  We hiked along one of these trails and came across the most interesting tree.  With a bit of help from Kat (and after one failed attempt), I made it up into the tree.
 After our trail adventure, we searched for peacocks.  We saw about seven or eight, mostly up in the trees.  I liked how I could see the tail feathers on this guy.
