Grasshopper

Dunno how he got up 3 floors, but there he was on the window sill making lots of noise

Re: Grasshopper

Great photo, Azz!

That must be the high jump champion in the Grasshopper Class!

Re: Grasshopper

Oh wow Azz! Love grasshoppers! When I was a kid in East Anglia, my brother and I used to "race" them! Don't see them around here.

Re: Grasshopper

Great shot, well captured, Azz! They can fly; actually they're good fliers.

Re: Grasshopper

Great pic Azz.....

Never knew that they could actually fly Dandysmom........

Re: Grasshopper

You see pictures of clouds of them flying to devastate the crops in Africa and some of our Western States. Horrifying sight for a farmer when they migrate like that!

Re: Grasshopper

Thanks for that Dandysmom,it must be devastating for the farmers to lose their crops to them.....

Re: Grasshopper

They sound like a smaller version of the locust!

Re: Grasshopper

If anyone's interested .......

"Locust is the swarming phase of short-horned grasshoppers of the family Acrididae. These are species that can breed rapidly under suitable conditions and subsequently become gregarious and migratory. They form bands as nymphs and swarms as adults—both of which can travel great distances, rapidly stripping fields."

Re: Grasshopper

Thanks guys! I didn't know they could fly either!
