Mayfield Preserve, Austin

Lousy weather in Austin today, but we learned a new word: “graupel.” » https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2014/12/05/graupel-the-wintry-precipitation-youve-never-heard-of/

Met a fellow hiker from our Grand Canyon trip at Mount Bonnell for the overlook of Austin, then came here to Mayfield Cottage and Mayfield Preserve before having lunch and going to Umlauf Sculpture Garden and Museum. Tomorrow: LBJ Library and Museum.

Beautiful bird, and the white background really sets it off. Your trip to Austin sounds amazing!

Very nice shot and of the peacock.

Beautiful colors, nicely captured. The peacock really stands out against the plain background.
