Camera Critters-Grasshopper on a dahlia

It was one afternoon sometimes on January this year that I was cutting some of my dahlia flowers to be put in a vase inside our house. The dahlias at that time were blooming at its best. When I started cutting a couple, I spotted a green grasshopper on one of the flowers. He was just sitting under the petals but later moved around the flower but didn't hop away from me. He was watching me and looked like he was uncomfortable of my presence. Of course, I didn't cut that flower where the grasshopper was and just let him enjoy the flower too.

When i was on grade school, we used to catch grasshopper,the little one and slightly brown color. This one looks beautiful, he likes on flower not on grass. Must be picky lol

My two favorite colors - pink and green - although I usually prefer the green to be a stem or a leaf instead of a bug. Neat photo!
