Grasshopper


I tried to sketch this little fella from life but he wouldn't keep still!  So I had to do this drawing from a photo.  At least I could enlarge it.
Its funny how I used to be so scared of insects but after living here in the back of beyond I've seen so many I've got used to them..even spiders!
I've recently seen some enormous black and yellow caterpillars.  I don't what they will turn out to be..probably something big and hairy?

Great work of the grasshopper!
The biggest most colorful caterpillars turn into the most spectacular butterflies!
