Grasshoppers are insects of the order Orthoptera, suborder Caelifera. They are sometimes referred to as short-horned grasshoppers to distinguish them from the katydids (bush crickets) which have much longer antennae. They are typically ground-dwelling insects with powerful hind legs which enable them to escape from threats by leaping vigorously.

I was able to photograph it in East Tyrol (Austria) on a mountain meadow, in summer. usually grasshoppers are not that colourful in Austria. I was really happy to discover them in the grass 😊
