Greetings All: In this corner, Anthony Hewetson with Clapp Park, Lubbock, weighing in at 121.64 acres, featuring a large playa bisected by a willow-line berm, many exotic trees, a wee little patch of grasses, and an arboretum! In this corner, Rich Kostecke with Devine Lake Park, Austinish, weighing in at 45. acres, featuring a lake, a marshy area, a mixed woodland, and juniper woodland/brushy pasture borders! No goals at this point but, with 6.5 hours spread across 6 visits to his park Rich Kostecke is beating Anthony Hewetson, with five hours spread across three visits to his park, like the family mule. The end of January totals: RK with 65 species and AH with 41 species. I'm thinking it's going to to be a long, uphill slog for AH.
