Description

No idea what this is; I've tried looking it up, but no luck. I found him sitting on my Lily ... I was surprised it didn't hop away at all - allowing me to have quite the photo shoot with him. :) It was fun. Thanks for stopping by; it's back to work I go today after having a week off. It's gonna be TOUGH! But I'm actually looking forward to getting back into the normal routine again. (trying to convince myself here lol) Take care, and thanks again. Have a good one. Shari

Wow! A metalic bug, is it radioactive? I'm with SecondChoice on this, some sort of Locust, never seen one that bright before. What a fantastic capture! Bravo!!

Excellent macro. The blur in the foreground gives this a nice touch of depth.

Beautiful shot!! Not sure what type of bug that is either but you got a really good shot of him.

See? This is what I posted today too and it was just about the same size as this! It must be that time of year... Don't you just love the colors on these guys? Good shot and the orange lily is a great stage for him to appear on. :-)

I've seen these before and heard the name but of course I can't think of it. sigh It is a fantastic close up of it though. Nice contrast of colors and the little bugger is so clear. :)

Love the image. There must be a population of these bugs worldwide because I have one in my ready to post list also, lol. I am not positive but my best guess/research is that it is an immature katydid. Thanks for sharing. Lee

Great! looks like the one I posted the other day - and I got no Iota further than you. Though I'm pretty sure that it's not a katydid. Locust cut's it closer - but my guess is the same as on mine - a baby hopper of some kind. Good one!

I think it's a "Lilybug" ...hehehe I found some bugs on my Lilys too but mine weren't near as pretty as this little guy! I love what you did with the flower... and it really brings the focus in perfectly on the lilybug. :-) Excellent as always!!!
