What do adventurous young grasshoppers do for fun? Hopping may be ok for the average grasshopper, but this little guy prefers the adrenaline rush he feels when he scales the sheer face of a rocky cliff with no ropes or other climbing gear.
The truth is a little less exciting than my fiction. The angle was not as steep as it looks in the shot and the “rock” is actually a rotten log.
I still choose to believe that grasshoppers like a little adventure in their lives. Who knows what they do when we are not watching?

Your “rocky cliff” idea is really a good one. The photo by itself is intriguing, but with that additional whimsy, the imagination soars!
Thanks, gary.
