Phlaeoba antennata

in Nature Observer2 months ago (edited)

Hello everyone good afternoon wherever you are, how are you this afternoon? Hope you are fine wherever you are.

I'm back here again and on this occasion I want to show you some beautiful shots of the Phlaeoba antennata grasshopper. The Phlaeoba antennata grasshopper is a short-horned grasshopper from the Acrididae family. And this grasshopper is also a small grasshopper in the family. Small but attractive, of course it will attract the attention of photography lovers.

This grasshopper is a grasshopper that is easy to compromise with, even though it has a hobby of jumping here and there. Like when I met him earlier, he had moved several times, when I approached him he always jumped to another place. At that time I almost gave up, luckily my brain turned quickly. Because he had moved several times, I tried to get him to sharpen it. You know what happened? Now he no longer jumps when I approach.

I continued to invite him to talk even though his response was only by moving his antennae or front legs. If someone saw me at that time, that person would definitely think I was crazy for talking there alone. But I didn't care about all that, all that was in my mind was wanting the grasshopper to appear gracefully on my camera screen.

When I saw the results in my gallery, I relaxed, I was amazed, God's creation is truly beautiful. Now let's look at the beauty of the grasshopper below👇

Such cute shots! It seems like he knows he’s the model of the day! 😂🦗

Yes that's right. he knew after I said that I only wanted to take photos, not hurt him. Thank you for stopping by.

Well, you have the evidence that they understand...🤔 or maybe your voice was pleasant to him or he was just trying to decipher the message with his antennae. Imagine, it's like having contact with an alien that has a device and is pointing it at you.
