A small Darkling Beetle (family Tenebrionidae, possibly Blapstinus fortis) follows the wall of the visitor building at Attwater Prairie Chicken National Wildlife Refuge, in Colorado County, TX, USA. It encounters several tiny Weevils (family Curculionidae) along the way and pushes down one that is climbing the wall.
