This little fella paid us a visit while we were having tea break yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised that it allowed me to get as close as I did.
This critter was very co-operative and managed to deliver a few cool poses before hopping away.
A great model and I think it likes being the center of attention .
Macro Monday

ReplyDeleteWe have grasshoppers in OZ they're called locusts and are about three times the size of this little fellow. A swarm of locusts can number in the millions, they actually block out the sunlight when on the march and eat everything in sight until nothings left.
ReplyDeleteGreat detail in these photos. And it's my favorite insect - so cute. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWow what a cool picture!

ReplyDeleteYou must have a special touch. The grasshopper did a great job.
ReplyDeleteAmazing shots. I don't think I have ever seen such perfect pictures of a grasshopper before. I have heard plenty of them over the years, but I think I have only every managed to actually see one live for about 2 seconds...
