My friends the locusts

•

Since my childhood, I have always loved crickets. I find them beautiful, curious and interesting to photograph.

When I go to Frederic-Back Park, I look at the flowers and bushes hoping to see locusts. On September 3, it was on a sunflower that I saw this beautiful locust shortly before leaving.

My favorite photos of locusts taken on September 23, 2023.

I was walking down a path in the park when something caught my eye. An insect was moving quickly on a spider web. At first I thought a spider was moving on its web. I then took five photos quickly. A grasshopper was stuck in the spider web and was trying to free itself. I closed my camera and with my fingers I broke the spider web to free him. The grasshopper immediately climbed onto one of my fingers. He stayed for about 10 seconds, then he jumped.
