Texas Wildfires

Gallery: Man & FaunaPosted March 29, 2013120 views3 comments

This is the result of wildfires in the Fort Davis, Texas area in 2011 and 2012. The Mesquite tree is burnt to a crisp and the green palmetto shoots rebirth shows how resilient the arid landscape is.

Texas is under extreme drought conditions in over 90% of the state right now.

Be interesting to see this ten years from now. I suspect it would be pretty jungled up.
