a hitch-hiking tree hopper. - Heliria
Chamblee, DeKalb County, Georgia, USA
August 11, 2010
Size: 3/8 inch
It has experienced the vicissitudes of living in the back yard from whence it came: missing a couple few legs and part of its tail cowling. It flew out of my hand after I took it to the back porch. Hopefully it'll find some nutrient 'mongst the water starved trees in the neighborhood.
