REFUGE FROM THE STORM, FLYING FALCONS & PINEY WOODS

Refuge
For Robin Bradberry the outdoors is what she calls her “happy place.” That’s no surprise, lots of folks rush to nature for the release. But for Robin, it’s more than that, it’s a chance for her to escape the challenges of living with Autism. 

Lone Star Land Steward: Lavaca Rio Ranch
Located along the Lavaca River, the Lavaca Rio Ranch is home to a diverse patchwork of coastal prairie, post oak savannah, bottomland hardwood forest, sloughs, and prairie pothole ponds containing rare plants and animals. The white-tailed deer and bobwhite quail populations have been responding positively to the active prescribed fire and grazing regime, which has also enabled the ranch to conserve and expand the important habitat types found on the ranch. 

Modern Falconry
We’re looking back at Texas Parks & Wildlife television’s thirty years on the air. In 1990, Made in Texas looked at the ancient art of falconry and the modern day falconers and their connection with these birds of prey.

Postcard From Texas
