Grasshopper. by ladymagpie

Grasshopper.

During yesterday's walk up the hill to take Mo to her resting place, my Niece came rushing up to me saying look what I've found. It was this grasshopper and it stood still while I grabbed my camera. Saying that, I only had one chance for the capture as it was gone in one hop.

I would like to thank my Niece Gail for supplying her thumb for this capture, and what a nice thumb it is to. More importantly I would also thank her for the giant Rum & Raisin ice cream we had after the job was jobbed.

Best viewed with the black background.
Wonderful shot and great teamwork!

Great close up. Gives good perspective with the thumb. I haven't seen many this year.....grasshoppers, not thumbs.
