Grasshopper cannot stop her roaming,
And her home and friends
Don't mean anything no more.
Showstopper, you cannot top her.
With a cowboy grace,
Can't stay in one place
Too long (too long).
Topper, she told such a whopper,
But everyone knows
When winter comes
Grasshoppers go.

According to the Seek app, this is an "obscure bird grasshopper (Schistocerca obscura)". It would be interesting to know where these names come from...

grasshopper warbler
another first for me ! this one was really hard to spot , favouring deep undergrowth low to the ground.
thank you for viewing and commenting on my photographs it is much appreciated .
The grasshoppers seem to be in huge numbers this year. At least it's one insect that isn't declining in numbers.
Melanoplus sp. maybe. The flower (prairie fleabane) is about half an inch/10 mm across - I didn't realize this was a grasshopper until I saw it on the screen. Spotted at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center...
This 2-striped grasshopper has purple-brown eyes but I took the shot when the sun hit the insect and the eyes glowed red. The bug has two yellow stripes running down its back, so it's called 2-striped. It's a pest all over North America. In Explore, March 25, 2020, photo 245.
Chased this little sucker all over the place until he finally held still long enough for me to get the shot. Sao Joao del Rei, MG, Brazil.
This is the first (and only) time I have seen such a colorful grasshopper. The ones I normally see are gray, or green, or brown.
Taken in the early morning near the village of Cantobre in the Cevennes national park, France.
I think the Id is right for this, there are numerous species of grasshoppers often with variable colours and patterns, so getting an id too a bit longer than usual.
Best viewed very large.

Foam Grasshopper / Cavalletta Spumosa
Foam Grasshoppers (Dictyophorus spumans pulchra) are distinguished by their bright colors. The name "foam grasshopper" derives from the insect's ability to produce a toxic foam from its thoracic glands.
Le Cavallette Spumose si distinguono per i loro colori vivaci. Il nome "cavalletta spumosa" deriva della capacità dell'insetto di produrre una schiuma tossica dalle ghiandole toraciche.
Brad and Brody, this one is for you! Now this particular Very rare species of grasshopper was part of the Big Bugs Outdoors collection of bugs. The sculptures are created by artist David Rogers using various combinations of found or fallen trees, cut green saplings selectively harvested from the willow family, dry branches, and other forest material. I think this grasshopper was at least 10 feet long so it was a very large one for sure! This collection of bugs is on display at the Glen Burnie Gardens which are part of the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley. I say it's for you Brad and Brody because you both posted very fine photos of grasshoppers on the exact same day. (15 days ago according to Flickr) I thought that was pretty cool. :) So this was My Grasshopper photo! LOL Have a great day everyone!
