Why not!!! I am sure no one would try and eat that grasshopper!!! especially all of those cats!!! Good thing you had your camera handy...one in a million shot! Pillows came out great...no loose feathers...now...onto my bed pillows!
I did! Well, I added a 'sorry!' to it...lol.... No grasshoppers for me. Although, when I was about 10 years old, I had pet caterpillars. They spun cocoons on my bedroom furniture and hatched later on. Oh geesh. That sounds so gross to me now! haha.
Did you see McGill University is making a study on these crickets as the future food group? Crickets, grubs, worms. Why not? On the lion king they said it tastes like chicken lol
No you can't come in unless you mind being a play thing for the cats. hahaha. Those things are the reason I refuse to go into a garden when it grows in. eek. Speaking of these creatures, I was purchasing Mums *yes finally* and I picked up a couple and as I was placing them on the cart to pay there happen to be a huge grasshopper sitting down in the middle of one. Well. I screamed and tossed the thing straight up. Some guy standing close caught it as it came down. My heart was flying. He started laughing when he realized why I threw the mum. Then he told me I scared it to death. Good! I said and I did not buy the one with the GHopper. :D I hate bugs of any kind.
Why not!!!

FIRST!!
DeleteGood for you...nice fresh pillows!
DeleteI'm pretty sure I've seen one of the cats eat a grasshopper....and plenty of cicadas, too. ew. haha.
Yay..you're first. Pat will say Pffft!
Im sure this Little is welcome to your Zoo lol
DeleteNope! haha....have to draw the line somewhere! ;)
DeletePffft just for you
DeleteAt your zoo
why Pat?
DeleteHe has a death wise I'd say
ReplyDeleteIt would be chow time at your bay
Wish I mean
DeleteAt your scene
He doesn't know
Deleteas his brain is slow
that he would not last
as the cats would eat him fast!
You haven't named him yet? I think he's been working out...did you see those abs. HaHa.
ReplyDeletehahahahahaha.....why, yes, he IS ripped, isn't he?
Deletehey...and he has a 6 pack, too!
DeleteGreat shot! You really captured the detail on him!
ReplyDeleteIt took a few attempts...my camera kept wanting to focus on the tree behind him!
Deletehaha, invite one in and they will bring all their friends....
ReplyDeletejust saying....be prepared...look what happened with the cats..
lol
Oh, don't worry...no invitation was given! :)
DeleteBetsy, just say NO! :) grasshoppers have even more friends and family members than kitties.
ReplyDeleteI did! Well, I added a 'sorry!' to it...lol.... No grasshoppers for me. Although, when I was about 10 years old, I had pet caterpillars. They spun cocoons on my bedroom furniture and hatched later on. Oh geesh. That sounds so gross to me now! haha.
DeleteI am sure the cats would like to play with him!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah...'play'. haha.
DeleteLooks like he'd make quite the meal!
ReplyDeleteSeriously? No thanks! ha.
DeleteFor one of your cats, not for you, silly!
DeleteGreat photo, the detail is amazing. He wouldn't be welcome in our house I'm scared of grasshoppers! He would get the hop off if he came here. xx
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm not afraid of them, but they still aren't welcome. No insects allowed in the zoo. ha.
DeleteWhen I lived in AR we used to get them come in under the back door and I cannot tell you what I did to them!
DeleteSo, you're scared of them because there could be an uprising? The Revenge of the Grasshoppers or something like that? lol....
DeleteNoooooo, just scared of jumpy runny insecty type things, spiders, grasshoppers, worms.... Wimp!
DeleteI'm not a fan of spiders. My fear has greatly diminished but I still don't do well with them. lol.... I had pet worms when I was a little girl. ha.
Deletemmmm lunch lol
ReplyDeleteDid you see McGill University is making a study on these crickets as the future food group?
Crickets, grubs, worms.
Why not? On the lion king they said it tastes like chicken lol
Well, I know they do in other countries. Not sure I could take a bite, though. ha.
DeleteI hope you directed him to the local ant hill. As the story goes he will find winter refuge there. :)
ReplyDeleteI'll remember that if he stops by again. :)
DeleteThe cats may not eat him but they just might use him for a play thing to bat around. I think I'd move on if I were him! ha
ReplyDeleteI gave him that advise! :)
DeleteNo you can't come in unless you mind being a play thing for the cats. hahaha.

JaG
lol....you are a hoot. You should write a book...or a blog. ha.
DeleteWhat a great shot Betsy! I don't think you miss much that's going on around your little zoo huh? =)
ReplyDeletehaha....well, he was on the kitchen window in front of the sink...kinda hard to miss him! lol....
DeleteThat photo kinda FREAKS me out! It looks absolutely ALIEN! I hope one of the cats ate him as a SNACK!
ReplyDeleteI suppose there could be room for some more, it's a shame it looks so creepy haha!
