Thanks Mark and Ashley! I was not sure at first if it was a tiny cicada or a giant hopper....turns out it is a giant hopper. :-)
Great shots Lisa.
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
