Chaparral Wildlife Management Area

south Texas

 

I've never seen one of these, and on this trip I photographed three !

This is the first one.

It was lying on the middle of an asphalt road in Chaparral Wildlife

Management Area in south Texas, Dimmit County. It let me take several

photos and then darted away.
