Frankly, this turn of events surprised me.

There were two grass hopper sitting on the pavement. Since I've only done one grasshopper photo this year, I decided to get down and photograph these two separately. One was quite little and the other was bigger. They were apart and difficult to get a good angle on for a nice shot.

However, when I aimed my lens at the small fellow first, he unexpected leaped on top of the bigger one (some distance away)& a wrestling match followed. I totally wasn't expecting that. My photo shows the motion blur.

The action was fast and confusing, but I stil got several shots. This was the first in the series. In my last photo, the bigger grass hopper was on top of the smaller one that had attacked him. They then disappeared into the bushes. So I don't know how things ended.I would assume the bigger guy won.

And now I know. Grasshoppers will fight.
