Thanks
Thanks very much for the identity of the grasshopper shown above. I've seen lots of grasshoppers in OK, but that one really stumped me. I would not be photographing insects if I didn't have your "Field Guide to Insects of North America", which is great help for novices (and old ladies). Thanks again for your help and service. Sheran, NE OK
