September 1

Delta Downs Racetrack/Casino, Louisiana

Grasshoppers like Heineken beer...
We noticed grasshoppers on beer bottles in the Casino parking lot.
So Tom baptized this fence post with part of his Heineken.
A few hours later... we had a dozen grasshoppers.
Most hopped away before I got this shot, but here are two (one is just over the ledge)

Very nice. I like the DOF and the "grasshopper's POV" of the scene. V

Very cool! Who knew that there were beer-guzzling grasshoppers, and with a distinct preference too! V
