They're everywhere!

Texans told me that this has been one of the worst years for grasshoppers.
They're literally everywhere!


I want to thank all of you who commented on my Montague County Courthouse image!
Your comments encouraged me to enter it in my local camera club contest last night.
Guess what? I won first place in the "Assigned Color Digital" category (Old Buildings)! My first blue ribbon! :)

They're everywhere here too! I've never seen so many in any previous season. We actually

Congrats on the blue ribbon, Steph, it looks a fine shot and so is this. These plagues cause such devastation to crops.

Way to go Stephanie. I'm so proud for you, now don't let that grasshopper any where near it. He looks hungry.

Beautiful capture and compo.
Pete Hemington18-Sep-2013 13:47
You've made good use of this one, are they a nuisance to crops like locusts?
