Canoe Trip Down the Neches
I just returned from a 3-day paddle through the Big Thicket National Preserve -Lower Neches Corridor. Saw and heard a lot of cool stuff, and enjoyed the company of a wonderful group of long-time friends. I was paddling solo, so I didn't get to snap pictures of most of what I saw. I did get a few good photos for observations, but I'm counting on @kimberlywalks to post observations of some of the stuff I missed, since there were 2 people in her boat.
Spring is really cranking up in the Thicket, and around the Dallas area as well.

This tree does not appear to have been planted, but the brush around it has been cleared.

Larva. I'm pretty positive on this ID. It tunnels along just below the surface of the sand in shallow water. Leaving behind a slight crease in the sand.

Love it! :)
Done. I have added my observations. Yes, two in our canoe, but camera with not quite the capabilities of yours.
