Brockdale Park

The area Google Maps sends you is apparently private. My lady and I went down there to check it out and we're approached by a woman from the raptor building that let us know. If you continue down the curved road it brings you to the public parking area.

Blackland Raptor Centers park is nice,not sure it is open all the time.We had a foraging school there.

One of my husbands and I favorite spot to kayak!

The volunteers do a great job of explaining the raptors. They had a Mississippi kite, a estrel, a screech owl, and a red shoulder hawk. There is a little nature walk where the volunteer pointed out the wild onions, the poison ivy (did you know it grows up trees in feathered looking vines? I did not know that), and other plants. Kinda small area but a nice little outing for $5.

Quite ,serene, beautiful. Gorgeous sun sets. As well as having a great spot for fishing. Has one boat launch there just make sure you clean your boat off. As it nears towards dark the wind cast across the water keeping you cool if you want to fish at night.
