*** About Lady Bird Lake: Lady Bird Lake is a reservoir on the Colorado River in Austin, Texas, USA. Formed in 1960 by the damming of the river, it spans 416 acres and serves primarily as a recreational venue for the city. It is named after Lady Bird Johnson, former First Lady of the United States, who was a major advocate for beautifying the city’s natural environments. Around the lake, trails invite Austinites and visitors alike to walk, bike, and enjoy outdoor activities. The lake also prohibits motorized watercraft, which maintains its tranquility and supports a safe habitat for various wildlife species, including the famous Mexican free-tailed bats that reside under the Congress Avenue Bridge.
