Monarch butterflies by the hundreds feed on Maximilian sunflowers during southward migration in Dallas Great Trinity Forest this morning. Planted by volunteers 9 years ago these flowers act as a vital feeding spot for the butterflies. Great hike along Trinity and White Rock Creek

Exploring McCommas Bluff Preserve and Dowdy Ferry trails in Dallas Great Trinity Forest this morning. Ancient limestone cliffs and diverse habitats make for an interesting walk to Elam Creek. Despite illegal land uses and dumping the river bottoms here are still beautiful.
