A young Ocelot visiting water feature at Visitor Center headquarters. Tragically, the Ocelot was ill and found dead a few days later.
I counted eleven scissor-tailed flycatchers on this powerline as I was driving out of the park just before it closed.

Female
The female has a shorter tail but it is still split in a V when flying. Juveniles will have a shorter tail too but not all the colors.

I Think I Got A Little Too Close
This female scissor-tail didn't seem to pleased I was inching closer to her. This look stopped me in my tracks and I slowly backed away, after getting the shot of course.
“Cinnamon bunting?” Hybrid painted x varied bunting
This is an interesting one. Spotted on a cruise ship which previously sailed to Montego Bay (Jamaica), Grand Cayman, and Cozumel (Mexico). Pretty sizable, probably too large to be a warbler. Very easy to approach as it didn't seem in condition to fly. This may be a first texas record for all I know.
