Of course this took me into ode territory on the heels of the big </div> <div> front. The overnight low at my place in Kerr County was 20 degrees F, and in </div> <div> checking my crossing on the way out of town (at 55 degrees) i found no odes. </div> <div> I also found zero odes at Landa Park in New Braunfels (where frankly i </div> <div> thought i might find some as the low only hit 30 degrees F there that </div> <div> night). This park is where the headwaters of the Comal River are located and </div> <div> plenty of open water is available. My second stop was at Aquarena Center in </div> <div> Hays County at the headwaters springs of the San Marcos River, where the </div> <div> previous night's low had been 29 degrees F. I had a few things there -- the </div> <div> list is below:</div> <bR> <div> 24 November 2003, TX: Hays Co., Aquarena Center, San Marcos River headwaters </div> <div> springs, 65 degrees F.</div> <bR> <div> 2 Common Green Darner (Anax junius)</div> <div> 1 Spot-winged Glider (Pantala hymenaea)</div> <div> * 1 Neotropical Bluet (Enallagma novaehispaniae) (photographed)</div> <div> 1 Dancer sp.
