Grasshopper

While I was at work Sunday morning, Luis and the kids were outside playing with Kyle when they saw this:



According to my entomologist husband, she was laying her eggs. He said she stayed there for a long, long time.


The kids were fascinated, and who wouldn't be? How often do you see a grasshopper lay eggs? Before Sunday, I don't think I'd ever given a thought to where or when or how a grasshopper lays eggs. I think this is so very cool, and I think Kyle would agree.
