This park is behind the Witte Museum and backs up against the San Antonio Zoo. It has a nice colony of egrets that congregate in the trees around one of the bridges. Nice old trees with a playground, good walking trails, and picnic tables. The river runs through it so there are ducks and other birds along with several bridges.
