Daring Rescue! News at 9:00

Grasshopper Jones was found unresponsive in the pool at a local resort, but due to the quick thinking of the resort's owner, the young insect was rescued and is expected to make a full recovery. Sources say the owner provides a quick escape ramp, but the lad failed to make use of it. No word on what may have prevented him from using the ramp. In other news...

Grasshopper very kindly sat on the piece of rebar so that I could take photos as thanks for saving his life. I would still like to achieve focus of the entire subject. In spite of many, many efforts and changes to settings, I still have not been able to do that. More practice. I will have to rescue another bug.

Constructive criticism is welcome. Thanks for stopping by.
So glad you were able to save his life, though it might be a short one! I saw a video once about how a tiny parasitic worm invades a grasshopper's brain and manipulates its behavior to make it jump into water! The worm then leaves the grasshopper and swims around so it can find a mate and the grasshopper then drowns.

Isn't that interesting? There is so much to learn about our world.
