Head Lake is a small reservoir located in the southern reaches of Dallas County. Although not broadly known to the public, the lake functions as part of the local flood control and retention system.
Lakes like this are common in suburban developments and agricultural buffer zones. Head Lake provides an ecosystem for frogs, insects, and seasonal birds, and its waters may help replenish surrounding vegetation during dry spells.
