Grasshoppers and crickets

[WD-40]

Grasshoppers and crickets are part of an insect order called the Orthoptera, which also includes wetas and katydids. Most types are good at jumping, although some - such as the mole cricket - cannot jump. Juvenile orthopterans are miniature copies of the adults, except that they lack functional wings.

A tiny Speckled Bush Cricket landed on my hand today as I was dead-heading roses. It was only about 1cm long, and the first I've seen this year!
