(Day 132) - Barking Up the Wrong Tree

Was taking photos in the garden and did not see this huge guy at first at all! His colors seem to be designed to camouflage on tree bark so perhaps he thought our wooden fence was a tree. 🌲😄

What a beautiful composition! Great job, grasshopper!

[Junko Y]

Such a great capture of the grasshopper in camouflage mode!

[Esther Rosenberg]

Blends right in, Mr. Incognito:-). Nice capture .

[Louise & Ken]

Such a crisp photo, Chris! These "little devils" are too big (and jumpy) to catch and kill, and they're destroying some of my plants! What appetites they have!

[Kathy A]

Well spotted and nice detail

[KoalaGardens🐨]

they really do blend in

A great eye to see him, Chris and an incredibly clear image of him.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Good eye to spot him! They really do blend in when they're in the grass or on a tree trunk.

[Dustyloup]

Ha I'm imagining him saying, wait, this isn't a tree but hanging on for a long time to pretend that he meant to do it!

[Jennie B.]

Good shot of this guy!
