Flooded Meadows at Old Amersham

29th July..... Ahh so Grasshopper.

You have to be of a certain age to understand what that title is all about, but back in the here & now I managed to photograph this Meadow Grasshopper in the garden this morning as it posed nicely in the sun, after doing a spot of singing. Looking at insects like this in close up you can appreciate where sci-film makers get their inspiration from, but sadly the over use of chemicals on the land & destruction of habitats is causing a serious decline in their numbers..... so the inspiration will be gone for future generations, unless we wake up & smell the coffee!!!!
