Hiding amongst the grass...


“She sat down in a weed patch, her elbows on her knees, and kept her eyes on the small mysterious world of the ground.  In the shade and sun of grass blade forests, small living things had their metropolis.”  Nancy Price


Robber Fly (possibly Pegesimallus pulchriventris)

  1. Awesome! That grasshopper looks like it's beaded - so colourful. "Elegant" is so appropriate. And the Robber Fly looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. Nice work.
