Grasshoppers

A while back I posted about a determined grasshopper that had made a home of our tree in the front yard (see Grasshopper). As suggested by our friend Andrea, Marianne has named the grasshopper Heidi. I've noticed recently that Heidi has a new, very green, friend. Unfortunately, I've spotted this new arrival in the back yard a couple of times, alarmingly close to the vegetable plants. I suppose there has to be a troublemaker in every crowd. I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

I found one just like that in my backyard, he was camping out for a few days. I kindly shooed him away when I caught him eating my grape leaves. I understand from a friend at the hydroponic store, that due to climate change, these little guys are coming into Vegas with a vengence!
