Wichita Falls editorial Part 3: Prairie dogs, Riverbend and cyclists

This summer I did a big job for the city of Wichita Falls, Texas. It consisted of 3 full days of shooting, literally from sun-up to sun down. The first day was aerial photography only, the next two days would be just crazy. While the sun couldn't always be in the ideal position, we got a ton of great photos and they sure got their money's worth.

This is part 3 of 5. 
Day 2 evening and day 3 morning:

Wichita Falls has a designated prairie dog living area at Kiwanis Park. 
They didn't actually request these photos, but I went and got them in my off time anyway. They're so cute, how could I not?

There are a bunch of butterflies and neat birds inside here.

Wichita Falls might be most famous for it's annual bike race the "hotter than hell"
which takes place in August. August in Texas is horrible. The cyclist community there is pretty big, so bike shots were a must. It's a surprisingly active city and there are a lot of nice places to enjoy the outdoors. These were taken at Lucy Park.
