How absolutely fascinating - dinosaur tracks preserved through the ages in limestone - it must be incredible to see those in person!
That shot of the Hummingbird? Feeding is perfect - absolute perfect capture love it.
I think I would avoid the park when it is flooding, that's some serious vicious water. An amazing place for sure, I really enjoyed learning about it.

Thank You
The park really does have a lot more to offer than just dinosaur tracks.
The Paluxy is one of my favorite rivers. We explored a lot of it. Just before the river enters the park there is a ford, where you can drive across the river.
There is an old cemetary from a town that was destroyed by a tornado and never rebuilt, and a nice waterfall where White Bluff Creek dumps into the river.
The Glen Rose area, with its caves and springs was a haven for moonshiners during prohibition.
Many of the older buildings in Glen Rose are built of petrified wood. It was such a popular material that they stripped countryside bare of it. The location of any remaining petrified wood is kept secret to protect it.
The whole area is rich with history. I miss it.

The flooding doesn't really affect the park that much. It is down about 50 feet and maybe more from the top area where the park is located. It really is an amazing place.
