Default Pollywog Pond Bird & Wildlife Sanctuary Corpus Christi

Well, I decided to go about a mile down the road (along Up River Rd to near Sharpsburg Rd in the Calallen area), and visit the Pollywog Pond Bird & Wildlife Sanctuary. Its a really neat place! Lots of neat foresty type areas with a potential to see some interesting wildlife. Anyhow, I took some pictures (once again, on the cell phone camera). Enjoy!
