Horse Lubber Grasshopper

At Home, SE Arizona

...Well, they're still hanging around. What's a girl to do but shoot them.
I usually see these grasshoppers walking down our roads. I only recently saw one fly and
yesterday I saw one JUMPING across the road. That was quite a sight.
I noticed this one in one of my agaves when I arrived home from work late; thus the flash.
