Ooo! Not very chamoflaged there is he! 🙂
No but was quite glad he hopped out of the grass and stayed still long enough for me to take a photo! 🙂
Great hot@ Love the colour and the detailing on the body.
Thanks Tim 🙂
Great capture, Louise! Did you use your zoom when you took this photo? xx
Thanks Melody – I didn’t have my zoom lens with me so I just got as close as I could and cropped the photo afterwards.
Great shot Louise! I love this. It is almost camoflaged!
Angela xx
Thanks Angela 🙂
Well hello Mt Grasshopper. I am trying to work out ho big you are. Are you a monster?
Lol, just an average sized grasshopper, I think! 🙂
It was great that he stays still for you to capture this wee beastie Louise,
You have to have a lot of patience for wildlife photography but you’ve nailed it.
Gorgeous colour and detail
Have a great Sunday
