Mr Fantastic

Posted on June 26, 2012 by Rachael

The bush cricket nymphs continue to grow and show off their long and very flexible legs! The Reed Richards of the cricket kingdom?

Well, hello little fella!

Here, one is eating its cast off skin. No waste in Nature.

  Thanks, Helen. The little critters are morphing into monsters. I counted 25 happily munching my dahlias this morning. Hmm, dilemma.

Brilliant shots – love the red background contrasting with little green Mr. Fantastic.

So I bopped over to your blog from Stephen Hipperson’s, and as I scrolled down your home page I found it harder and harder to decide on which of fabulous posts to say “Hello”. This creature is gorgeous – as are so many of your photos.
