He WAS Deliberately Playing Hide'n Seek! by milaniet

He WAS Deliberately Playing Hide'n Seek!

I tried my hardest to catch a glimpse (with the camera) of this grasshopper's face - if I'd go left, he'd go right - I go right, he goes left! But he never moved more that an inch or two and only the head. We did this for nearly 5 minutes. He never jumped away. I finally conceded he was the winner because I couldn't stay crouched down any longer with hope of ever getting back up!
Good capture of the grasshopper hiding from you and hanging onto the plant. Grasshoppers are so elusive!

Bashful little guy, isn't he? Love the way he's gripping the blade.

That is hilarious. Sorry you couldn't capture him, I bet he was cute!! The photo goes so well with your story. Thanks for the chuckle!

Oh boy, he is hanging on for dear life! All that green around him makes his dark body stick out even more! If he only knew....Nice shot Milanie, as always!

Great capture anyway!

That's funny, isn't it. They just sense that you are looking at them and they turn to hide. Nice capture anyway.

I think he's wanted by the law. You'll see his face on a poster in the post office. Fun story and shot.
