A pair of Steel-blue Cricket Hunter Wasps circled my yard for several days. The only place they would stop was on the orange flowers of the Butterfly Weed.

 

They strongly resemble Blue Mud Dauber Wasps, which have a longer pedicel (the "stalk" that connects their thorax to their abdomen).

 

Butterfly Weed is a native plant species, and my favorite Michigan wildflower. Ironically, I have never seen a butterfly land on the flowers, although it does attract a variety of wasps and hornets.

Forest Kingfisher catches a cricket. For those who follow cricket, the game, that's a good catch!

Court Hey Liverpool july 2022

As has happened several times in the past few summers, I discovered a grasshopper on a houseplant, which I carefully brought onto the terrace and placed on the echinacea. I put a few drops of water on the flower and the little guy drank and later nibbled on one of the flower petals.

A cricket in Greece.

We are going to go a little further north, leaving the Sombrero Chino island to reach the Bartolomeo island. Both islands, very small, are located near the island of Santiago. The birds follow us during the crossing.

Orthoptera is an order of insects that comprises the grasshoppers, locusts, and crickets, including closely related insects, such as the bush crickets or katydids and wētā. The order is subdivided into two suborders: Caelifera – grasshoppers, locusts, and close relatives; and Ensifera – crickets and close relatives.

Green cricket thought I wouldn't see him under the rose, I did even though he has great camouflage.

 

Have a great weekend

Another conundrum, so when the sport cricket was invented, what on Earth was the thought process? 😶

Cricket is undoubtedly the most popular game played in the subcontinent. .

A white fence encircling the cricket oval, that at first sight looked like a picket fence. On closer inspection, the fence turned out to be tubular aluminium.

 

The horizontal lines in the background is a corrugated iron walls of a transportable building with an alternate view of the oval, likely for sporting commentators.

From the possible subjects and ideas today, I chose this little cricket ball. It is about 1 1/2 inches in diameter and with its silicone base keeps insects off my drink. In the background its alter ego the tennis ball.

If you zoom in, you can see what I assume to be cricket legs barely out of the corners of it’s mouth.

Looking like something out of a horror film.

Nice big cricket getting fat on the beans ! Took him off the beans and left him on the sweet potatoes.

Trying out a patch of land not far from the Medieval path in Grazalema, was not not having much luck when I noticed a small cricket nymph on what looks like a species of Spurge. Not sure which species though it could be Speckled Bush cricket.

 

Best viewed very large.
