It had been over two years since I had met one. They have nocturnal habits and camouflage themselves very well.

The jaws (those black affairs visible in the video) are powerful and the bites can be painful, but just don't bother her. After all, it's just a grasshopper, even if someone has called it the tyrannosaurus of the Orthoptera.

Of course, she doesn't lack an appetite :-D
I've never met a grasshopper like that :-o
Excellent sharpness even at high resolution, excellently rendered and well matched colors. Great shot!
Hello, Master ;-)

Thank you. :) With an insect 12 cm long (excluding antennae), which remains motionless for a long time, it is easy to win. :-D Considering the rarity of sightings of this species, I performed various stacking and bracketing.
Among the peculiarities of the Pedo Saga is that it reproduces by parthenogenesis. The sons (the daughters because males are ultra-rare) are practically clones of the mother.
