Stopped at a traffic light yesterday morning, and this little critter decided to take a rest stop on my windshield. Little did he know that it would be nearly a mile before I would stop again – and at 50 mph he was hanging on for dear life. I pulled over on the street next to the mail center and shot this photo, figuring he would fly away immediately.
But those sticky little feet still weren’t moving when I parked, so I got a couple of closer shots, figuring my son would enjoy them. You probably won’t . . .
his wings look just like leaves! I wonder what he's called. Some kind of grasshopper I presume, but what kind. hmmm. If it weren't so late I'd check. nifty critter tho!
