Description

This grasshopper was in the same ten square foot patch of lily where I got the last two damselfly photos. It kept trying to move to the off side of the grass to avoid the big eye looking lens. Finally I got a photo. Thank you for the comments left and for taking the time to look. -GB-

OK, you got me on the foot construction. Your detail is so spectacular, I immediately locked on that foot and got lost in its construction!
