Grasshopper hopped right in front of me as I walked the road at Scotts Run Lake.

We just returned from a trip visiting family and I have a question. Do you have an unhealthy addiction to photography if....

you stop at a pretty rest area in North Carolina to stretch and other stuff and you notice these little skippers on the flowers and you feel you have to go back to the car, unpack your camera gear and take a bunch of images?

Found this moth the other night resting on my dining room window.The camera was handy so here it is,

The Orthoptera are an order of insects with incomplete metamorphosis, including the grasshoppers, crickets and locusts. Many insects in this order produce sound (known as a "stridulation") by rubbing their wings against each other or their legs, the wings or legs containing rows of corrugated bumps. Their ears, located in the front legs, are interconnected in such a way that they are able to locate each other by sound ( in wikipedia)

Idea leuconoe

Melanargia galathea L.

envergure 37-52 mm

Il apparaît au mois de juin à la lisière des forêts et comme une vedette il se laisse photographier assez facilement

I have been unable to identify this butterfly feeding on a butterfly bush in the Austin, Texas area. I thought it might be a Skipper of some sort, but I can't find anything that matches. If anyone can help please leave a comment.
