Jiminy Cricket.
I took this photo with my iPod instead of my fancy camera – not bad I think.

How do you tell the difference between a grasshopper, a locust, and a cricket? Is it the color?
Great pic, esp. with just your iPod.
Thanks Sandra. Actually – full disclosure – this is a grasshopper, not a cricket. But Jiminy Grasshopper did not have the same ring, and the Walt Disney character Jiminy Cricket, looks a lot like a grasshopper. Crickets, grasshoppers and locusts are all from the same family, and the differences are in the legs, antennae and habits. This little guy has a short antenna and is active during the day, characteristic of grasshoppers.

Nice! I am also enchanted with my iPhone camera. Hope you are doing ok. Thinking of you and wishing all good things as you continue to recover. xo
Thanks Suzanne. Doing better and Feeling pretty normal from the neck down now, but the neck up still needs work.
You people… I’m joining you with an Apple camera..just hold on.. 😛 😛
Okay then. 🙂
That is impressive – crisp focus, nice color balance. Good job, iPod! (I can’t give it any credit for subject and composition, though – you’ll have to accept the congratulations for those 🙂 )
Thanks Sharon. I shot this mostly on faith – it was so sunny that I couldn’t see the iPod screen very well – tried to set it up as best I could and hoped for the best.
The professor is quite impressed!
Wow. Glad I could impress YOU Professor! Thanks.
VERY GOOD 🙂
Thanks Ann.
