Grasshopper @Dhoni Forest

Dhoni Reserve Forest,

Palakkad, Kerala

 

There are around 50 types of Grasshoppers in the Western Ghat range of mountains. This particular one (could not ID) was very shy - everytime I set my tripod and focus, it would adjust its body to hide behind the stem. This was at a very low level, so after a few attempts, I just gave up and left it in peace.

 

If someone can ID, it would be great.
