We took this video with a DJI FPV drone at the Perdanales River Nature Park, up on Hwy 281, in Johnson City. $2 admission for seniors, $6 for adults, all on the honor system. No manned gate, just a drop box. There was a couple sitting in lounge chairs under a tree near the drop box with a camping trailer, probably hired as caretakers for the summer. This video focuses more upon the river, than it does the wildflowers in the park, unlike our last video that we posted from here a month ago. See that video linked here… https://youtu.be/siWRq7TpJrY
On this weekend when we visited, there had been a series of thunderstorms passing thru the area and upstream of that location. The Perdanales River was running a bit high and very muddy. There were multiple fishermen along the shoreline and they were catching mostly Carp fish.
We made multiple flights with a couple of different drones, but this flight later in the evening turned out perfect with the clearing blue skies reflecting off the calm water surface. Our earlier flights did not have this reflection because the water surface was too choppy from the thunderstorm generated winds. We hope you enjoy this video as much as we did catching the view just at the right time and angle…
