I discovered this guy in the flower bush when photographing the bees.
I am amazed that he stayed still, watching me as I snapped photos. Even as I moved around, he watched patiently. I wonder, can he sense that I am harmless, and will soon move on? I hope so. I think the purple flowers and green leaves around him added a beautiful contrast.
What a unique creature 🙂

Nice job on the depth of field. The pink yet blurred background really brings interest to the grasshopper and the pretty blossom. 😊

Thank you! These flower bushes are so beautiful. They are Texas Rangers. I scour the neighborhood on the weekends for photo ops 🙂

Had never heard of that flower. Wonder if I’ve seen it and just didn’t know what it was. 😊

They seem to be very patient or not afraid of humans—I’ve also noticed that!!
