great grasshoppers!

Look at this colorful fellow I found on our front porch.
Actually it's called a lubber (I looked it up)
and we usually see them at the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary (an Audubon site) but we don't often see them around our property. He (or she) was quite cooperative when it came to having it's picture taken. Much easier than trying to shoot (with a camera) a butterfly!
