Here’s some additional pictures from Brazos Bend State Park.
This was actually an accidental picture. I was just trying to take a picture of a White Ibis. It wasn’t until I got home and started reviewing the pictures that I noticed that this bird had caught a Crawfish.
In this first picture, you can just make out it’s a Crawfish in its mouth as you can see the see the pinchers. In the foreground is a Common Moorhen.

In the second picture you can again see the Crawfish pinshers as well as its tail.

The Crawfish is about to become a meal. For the last time you can see the pinshers poking out of the Ibis’ bill.
