Grasshopper at Vizcaya in Miami - Romalea microptera

Grasshopper at Vizcaya in Miami - Romalea microptera
Miami (Vizcaya), Miami-Dade County, Florida, USA
July 7, 2008
Size: Approx 3 inches
Saw this beautiful grasshopper on the grounds of Vizcaya, an estate/museum on Biscayne Bay in Miami. He was missing one hind leg. I think it's an Eastern Lubber Grasshopper.
