The Last Grasshopper



The last grasshopper of the season.
I took these pictures several weeks ago and
since then we've had a bit of frost and true autumn weather.
As this year is quickly coming to a close,
I thought we should take one last look.
Isn't he a charmer?

    I'm so glad that you all enjoyed the pictures. He's really quite small. I love the macro lens - such interesting details emerge and the natural patterns are amazing!
