Description
Grasshopper Hanging On by Kathy K. McClellan is a photographic image created for Day One of Challenge 23 (Theme: Garden Bugs).
This Obscure Birdwing Grasshopper is hanging on to a porch post, presumably to rest and possibly to scope out the surrounding grasses.
There are two main classifications of grasshoppers, Short Horned and Long Horned. The insect pictured is a female, short horned grasshopper.
She is quite large, approximately four inches long. Her diet consists mainly of wild grasses and wild broad leafed plants found in meadows. She is not likely to become a crop destroying pest in your garden as long as the wild plants are plentiful.
