Do you hear the grasshopper that is at your feet?

The meadow at Ballanette wetlands is often bursting with butterflies and moths during this time of the year. My preferred is the six-spot burnet moth that I’ve been trying to capture clearly in a photograph.  These photographs aren’t as sharp as I’d hoped but I was captivated by the tiny, almost invisible grasshopper balanced on a leaf.  It could be heard but not seen at the time so I was pleased to see it appear in my image.
