Grasshopper.
I spotted this fellow on my potplants yesterday; his features are so delicate.
I could not get it any sharper, sorry.

An intense Insect.

Beautiful form (unless you are grass!)

I think this is a praying mantis too. They're such cool creatures!

Love them! Very beneficial bug. Nice try with the closeup, I would it would be difficult with such bright light and moving mantis.

Could almost mistake it for a leaf, a really good close up Sandra!

Praying Mantis? Nice closeup.

Looks like this is a praying mantis....they eat the bad bugs. Great shot of him.

Hi Sandra - I love these praying mantis - so strange and alien-like...
