Weird looking bug!

Day 278 - Mr Google reliable informs me this is a Dark bush cricket (Pholidoptera Griseoaptera), I don't think I've seen one this up close before, but it made me jump when it hopped off!

Aww! Great shot!

[Diana]

Fabulous focus on this weirdo.

[Steve Jacob]

It's unusual to see them with their legs stretched out

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Wonderful close up capture and I love your title.

[Margaret Brown]

Weird but certainly not going to win any beauty contest.

[Sue Cooper]

What a brilliant shot. Never seen anything like this. Fav.
