no, think not, mine was totally green, had even green eyes, was jumpy. as i saw it i yelled for the camera - and it was gone :(
Do you think the fluffy tailed could be the same family as your 2 spottings? I saw a bunch of the fluffly tailed on some bushes and they let me get really close and hardly moved at all. They jumped a bit but that was after I took a bunch of photos.
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6369530 http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6385298 they have a brushlike tail, I saw a fluffy tailed one a week ago but wasn´t fast enough to catch it with the camera
I saw the same thing a few days ago. monkey-mind I checked your spottings, I see the leafhoppers but do you have a spotting of one like these, with the fluffy 'tails'? http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6708385
