Wing-buds not reversed, so at least two more moults before adulthood - possibly a couple more than that.
Rodborough Common, Gloucs
I was scrambling round here erratically looking for a composition when I found a bit of a bowl in the ground. I thought, if I lay on the grass, I could get a nice low angle on the limestone, with bush and sky above me. But as I lay, the skin of my cheek on the dry fresh grass, a thought flitted across my mind. What if another tog who thought they owned this bit of land, and freshly filled with hot coffee from a flask, had decided they had to have a wee and had hovered a while in this private little place that I now rubbed up against? I've seen the footprints of togs who have gone before me, and thankfully not noticed anything else, but I do know some have to make more frequent visits than others. Now the thought is there, I shall be more wary in future.
Anyhow this was a strange little tree/bush, a bit spikey...and then I thought....no, I'm not going to tell you what that one was. So many strange thoughts going through my head at the moment. It must be down to Lockdown3. Here's some music to cheer the soul. Damn that lyric "There must be some kind of way out of here, Said the joker to the thief, There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief!" Listen, this is GOOOOOD!! Very good! www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UHHc7POovg OK, got you thinking? Change!
Haven't we got change, had a helluva change in the last year? Who's going to buy a new petrol or diesel car? Who's going to travel...go anywhere, meet? Who believes any more? Who, trusts the Government, politicians, the experts, the banks, the vaccine? Who's confused, fed up, feeling beaten into submission?
Change is happening. Something very weird is going on? Is it all down to a virus which if you could scoop it all up.... all of it in the world, even at the height of the pandemic would amount to one and a half teaspoons.....apparently.
"No reason to get excited"
The thief, he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late"
Is the Great Reset a myth? Or is there something really scary about all this? Take a look (only the Aussies tell it like it is)

and I wondered that all a man could ever want could be found near a bush.
Funny how this little rose bush has kept a good percentage of its leaves. I don't think it looks too happy nearly buried in the snow though! The bush is several years old and has never kept the leaves like this before.....Interesting nature!
My 'burning bush' shrub has finally shown some colour this Autumn. Problem is it is so late compared to others in my neighborhood that the leaves fall off in their green state.
Correct name,,,'Euonymus alatus Compactus'
Not a video for viewing, the lighting was impossible, but this is a video for listening. The menu at our bush dinner was announced in English and Damara Nama; take a listen and enjoy.

Several of these shy little antelope (they stand about 90cm or 3' high) roamed in the gardens of the hotel where I stayed at Cathedral Peak. This one was in the garden right outside my room.

At dusk the other day, this little Speckled bush-cricket (I think it's one) crawled around on the lawn at home. A little sluggish, it moved slowly and I followed with macro and flashes. On its way, it enters this red-blasted leaf and stops balancing on the edge of the leaf and licks its leg. I had a flash thrown out on the ground obliquely behind to the right, which illuminated the leaf, and then a flash from above from the left as main light. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to adjust the exposure to the maximum so the background became a bit dark.
Regardless, the little dance between us was the treasure of the evening. 😀 Shortly after this photo was taken, it used its powerful hind legs and flew away into invisibility ... I managed in some strange way to lift my old body to a barely standing position and staggered and stumbled to the warm abode of home...😆😂 happy in the mood like this on an autumn evening in October... and thought in my quiet mind.. it's all good and fine here at home anyway..😍

Insects in the family Tettigoniidae are commonly called katydids (especially in North America) or bush crickets. They have previously been known as "long-horned grasshoppers". More than 8,000 species are known. Part of the suborder Ensifera, the Tettigoniidae are the only extant (living) family in the superfamily Tettigonioidea.
