Grasshopper


What can I say? I am into bugs here lately...and Arizona has some BIG ones! This fellow was hanging out just above my garage this afternoon. Thought he was cool enough...and close enough to grab my camera for. He was fun! I know he doesn't bite...but he SURE does not stand as still and nice for me as the praying mantis did. He made me nervous the whole time I was snapping these with all of his nervous little movements! It was enough for me to know I'd better stick with babies! Babies don't make my skin crawl and I never feel like I might throw my camera down and run away from them! Still...the big bugs here do really make for some fun and most excellent photography practice!
