ππΌπππΌ
And a big Thanks to for the inspiration to go to this park this week!
ππΌπππΌ
So for this week's Wednesday Walk, I visited another Park this time in Flour Bluff, the section of Corpus where I live.
This park is called "Dimitt Park", us locals call it "Dimwitt" Park. π

I have posted from here before, but since they "rebuilt it and tore it up and rebuilt it again - in a year ( happens a lot here..π€), I thought we should take another look!
This is at the main gate, actually it's "closed for construction - again"... I went in anyways, not many workers to stop anyone..πππ
Under the sign is a fresh generation of,
"Coreopsis leavenworthii". Here one alone, they are also known as,
"Leavenworth's Tickseed"
There was also growing next to them was these little flowers. They are called,
"Indian Blanket - Gaillardia pulchetta", nice to see the wildflowers blooming again!
Across from the gate I found this "Ibis" pair hanging around and taking advantage of the new "baby fish (bait fish)" canals they built here everywhere.
The canals (I guess) must have been approved after everything got finished so... They tore up all the new streets and parks and put them in.
In the end a plus for the ecosystem, as the idea is that bigger fish cannot get in and eat them. Of course it does make it "easier" for those who catch them to sell to bait stands...π€
And a view out into the "Intercoastal Waterway",
And the new rockwall's they built up around the shore...
And the new (twice) fishing pier. It is long because as you can see from the photos - it's pretty shallow, and except the ship canals it's like that all the way to Mexico. If you can swim across the canals, you can walk the whole way just about 50 feet out!
Thank You for Visiting and wish You and Yours an Awesome rest of the week!
Stay Blessed and Safe, Always!
