Canon FD 50mm F/3.5 stacked with Raynox M-250 Sony ILCE a6000 at F/5.6 hand held. This is not a very good photograph as far as the point of view goes, I wanted people to see the great detail that you can get with Raynox M-250 stacked on your favorite macro lens.
I seemed to have missed this photo earlier.
These small grasshoppers were seen just before midday at this reserve.
There were hundreds of these tiny nymphs! This one briefly posed on top of a rabbit dropping!!
Hartlebury Common - Worcs
Went to Otmoor yesterday and was driven insane by my 12 year old boy who became some sort of Horse-Fly magnet.
He REALLY enjoyed his walk!
Grasshopper. Lots of these around in the meadows at the moment but they always know I'm there and try to hide behind grass!
I will bring locusts into your country... They will cover the face of the ground so that it cannot be seen. So far I only see 1 grasshopper, not a plague. I think we are safe.
Another colourful grasshopper with similarities to one seen earlier that day but also differences. I am not sure whether it is a different species or perhaps sex.
Just a little Grasshopper I found soaking up the bright sunshine this weekend. Hope everyone is having a great week!!

Llegó a nuestra casa, le hice unas fotos y lo dejamos marchar. Suerte amigo.

Normally I wouldn't shoot a grasshopper with the 70-200 but I like how it turned out
Grasshoppers inundate gas stations every morning and evening for some weird reason. So what do I do? That's right, I take photos of the top of a stranger's car.
The grasshopper is an insect of the suborder Caelifera in the order Orthoptera. To distinguish it from bush crickets or katydids, it is sometimes referred to as the short-horned grasshopper. Species that change colour and behaviour at high population densities are called locusts.
Grasshoppers have antennae that are generally shorter than their body and short ovipositors. They also have pinchers or mandibles that cut and tear off food. Those species that make easily heard noises usually do so by rubbing the hind femurs against the forewings or abdomen (stridulation), or by snapping the wings in flight.
Tympana, if present, are on the sides of the first abdominal segment. The hind femora are typically long and strong, fitted for leaping. Generally they are winged, but hind wings are membranous while front wings (tegmina) are coriaceous and not fit for flight. Females are normally larger than males, with short ovipositors. Males have a single unpaired plate at the end of the abdomen. Females have two pairs of valves (triangles) at the end of the abdomen used to dig in sand during egg laying.

These elusive birds tunnel through the undergrowth, and pop up right in front of you. Still a challenge though, through the reeds, they don't stop for long, but little crackers with delightful plumage, as I hope this image highlights. Lakenheath fen. At least six were reeling in the top half of the reserve earlier on, but never too common here. In my opinion a weird, but wonderful sound to hear. I would guess at only ten pairs on the whole of the fen, so an opportunity is rare such as this.
