I thought this cheery-looking grasshopper, posing at Dunlop Millennium Woodland Nature Park on a sunny day, was a fitting upload for a Friday. Wishing everyone a great weekend ;D

The SATA Grasshopper Vertical Tank is an AI controled assault mech. Adapting quickly to all-terrain enviroments, SATA use these mechs mainly for suppressive fire, or for back-up on patrol sallies. The Grasshopper sports a 50 Cal. side mount, and a double -headed grenade launcher on the rear, and mainly uses heart beat sensors to locate enemies.

SOOOOO good to have posted something! Totally inspired by Andreas' EU Sentinel. Hope you like! I hope to get SATA factions soon so I can pose them next to their beloved mech. :P

Since I purchased a Nikkor 105mm f/2.8. macro lens I'm constantly discovering interesting subjects in the garden. I'm not 100% sure the left eye is pin sharp, but I'm pretty satisfied with my first shareable insect macro capture.

  

Found in my car dehydrated close to dying , some sips of water later, ready to go back to the garden. Quite a tricky take. one handed camera use with the grasshopper taking up the other hand!

The grasshopper is a medium to large sized insect and the grasshopper is found (close to grass) all over the world. Grasshoppers are best known for their ability to jump incredible heights and distances.,

Most grasshopper individuals grow to about 2 inches long although larger grasshoppers are found on a fairly regular basis that grow to more than 5 inches in length. The grasshopper has wings meaning it can migrate over long distances when the weather gets too cold.

 

There are 11,000 thousand known species of grasshopper on Earth, that live in grassy areas such as fields and meadows and forest and woodland. Like all insects, all species of grasshopper have a three-part body that is made up of the grasshopper's head, it's thorax and the abdomen. Grasshoppers also have six legs, two pairs of wings, and two antennae.

 

The antennae of the grasshopper are known to be remarkably long and can often be longer than the grasshopper's body, although the grasshopper's antennae and the grasshopper's body are normally about the same size. Grasshoppers use their long antennae in order to make sense of their surroundings.

 

Grasshoppers have six jointed legs that are incredibly powerful for such a small creature, as grasshoppers are able to jump extraordinary distances. The two back legs of the grasshopper are long and powerful and are just for jumping, where the four front legs of the grasshopper are primarily used to hold onto prey and to help it to walk.

 

I found that Grasshopper in Kandersteg (Switzerland) 1200 m above sea level in the year 2011 in summer.

When it comes to Grasshoppers, I know nothing much beyond the fact that a few of them can demolishing a garden in a matter of hours. I found this one hiding and well camouflaged in a vine growing on my garden fence. Not the least bit bothered at being discovered, it happily rode on my hand and posed for photos. When I refused to pay the outrageous fee it was asking, it flew away without so much as a by your leave.

This hopper was the size of my thumb nail. I found him messing around in the grass with my macro lens. Was a pretty good find.
