I went to Brazos Bend State Park yesterday which is less than an hours drive from Houston and next door to Sugarland. Wow! It was just wonderful. I only went on three trails, so I have lots of park to discover yet. Anyway, there were lots of butterflies on the Pilant Slough Trail, so I thought I'd start a thread to share them. Most were Satyrs. In fact, there were so many Satyrs flitting across the trail that I was afraid that I would step on one!

I'll start with what I believe is a Pearl Crescent. Please correct me if I've made a mistake in the ID. I'm new at this butterfly thing.
