Brazos Bend SP, Cool Autumn

After a night of yard-camping in the glorious new autumn temps (from 90's to 60's), Scott and I decided to go for a long nature walk at our favorite state park. Here are some of the species I logged into iNat. There are a few insects that required a slow-mo scrub (I didn't bring the Tamron 600mm with me this time), and I may upload later if I can figure out the ID's.

In going through list, I can see I missed several bird species which I typically ignore when looking specifically for autumn migrants (think mockingbird, cardinal, titmouse), those that only pass through on their way south. If I was also counting species and individuals on eBird, I would not have done that.
