Brazos Bend State Park

Brazos Bend State park is located about 50 miles southwest of downtown Houston, TX and this gallery contains images of some of the typical plants and animals that can be found in this wonderful place. I find it amazing that such a habitat and so many species exist so close to such a major sprawling city and I am thankful that people had the foresight to set this land aside. My hope is that we can continue to preserve it. It is a blessing to have this convenient escape from the busy city. If you are ever in the Houston area and are interested in wildlife, a trip to Brazos Bend is always worth while.

I would also like to thank all of the volunteers who donate their time to help the dedicated staff keep the park running.
