I believe this is a female Texas tree cricket
The colors and location both match for that species.

Note the pronotum and wings are translucent green rather than translucent tan. Also the antennae are richer in color than usually seen with the brown form of Western tree cricket.

We don't have a lot of photos of this species in BugGuide, so these photos are valuable. It also extends their known range.


 
It makes my day
Thank you Nancy!
