This Grasshopper didn't mind at all, when I got close with the camera.
The color is very unique, usually they are green in color.
Hope Ya'll like it. Gasssman.
Not sure of the ID of this one.
Possibly a Field grasshopper ?
The ' clubs ' on the ends of the antenna are confusing me.
I currently have lots of these in my garden giving me plenty of photo opportunities. This one is a young one at approx 15mm in length.
A male grasshopper warbler 'reeling' - singing its extraordinary song; a sound (to our ears at least) like an enormous insect.
A grasshopper on sandstone. Nottinghamshire, UK. From a quick bit of online research, I believe it is a Field Grasshopper (Chorthippus brunneus), but if anyone knows better, please let me know! :)
These sweethearts are so hard to photograph: they're hardly visible and if you do see them, they hop to another blade of grass. That's probably why we call them "grasshoppers". :-))
This is the small meadow grasshopper: 1.5 – 2 cm.

I was scanning these flowers on the Savanna Meadow Trail at the Wildflower Center when I thought I saw some motion in one. Looking through the macro lens I was surprised to see this tiny grasshopper. The flower was maybe 2 cm, a little less than an inch in diameter. I assume this is a youngster, not a very small species, but I don't know for sure. Could be a nymph of Melanoplus sp. I've never seen a grasshopper perched in a flower like this before...

Spotted on Lantau Island. Grasshoppers live from spring until Autumn, they never see winter. Apparently, Confucius referred to people as grasshoppers if they couldn't grasp an issue, couldn't see the whole picture or, in other words, see only three seasons and not four.

Good morning everyone. Presented today for your viewing pleasure is the Differential Grasshopper (Melanoplus differentialis). The 4th in a series of different grasshoppers photographed this past year. After the Red-legged Grasshopper, it is the most common grasshopper found here locally, and this past season the numbers I saw of Differentials was up significantly from prior years.
Of all the grasshoppers found locally the Differential tends to be the most photogenic. Quite handsome for a grasshopper plus it tends not to be as flighty and as a result more co-operative when it comes to having its picture taken.
As for the above photo, this rather large female is perched on Boneset. And as with all grasshoppers, females are typically larger than males. The yellowish background is created by Goldenrod.
As always, don't forget to click on "view previous comments" if you don't see the additional photos in the comment section. Even better, scroll to them by clicking on the arrow thingy to the right of the above pic. And if you want to any pic in the comment section large all you have to do is click on it where you'll also find the complete narrative describing this species of grasshopper.
Thank you for stopping by...and I hope you are having a truly great week.

For several days I've been sharing photos of coyotes feeding heavily on grasshoppers - finding them in the bunched grass, chasing them as they try to fly off - so this is a good time to slip in a hopper close up from last summer. I haven't done a lot of focus stacking, but did play with it on a cool morning in August, when activity was minimal and there was no wind. This is a 12-image stack, camera on tripod, 105mm macro + 1.7x teleconverter, changing the focus slightly for each shot.

A grasshopper got lost ending up in our living room. So I used the opportunity to take some pictures before it was released into the yard again. I did not bother looking up the species though. Therefore, any pointers are welcome ;-)
In grasshoppers, the auditory organs are in a rather unusual location, on the abdomen. On each side of the first abdominal segment, tucked under the wings, you'll find membranes that vibrate in response to sound waves. This simple eardrum, called a tympana, allows the grasshopper to hear the songs of its fellow grasshoppers.
