Field Notes

Description:

"Oh boy, my first grasshopper photo. And he isn't moving. Great! I will really be able to get a good one. They all usually hop away." Well, then I realized the grasshopper had molted and left behind a" hanging on for dear life" reminder.

Habitat:

Meadow in the Poconos

Notes:

Silver spotted skipper in the background
