These were taking standing in the one spot, there was some other different colours that I didn't get as well.

great collection of hoppers you have here. Very sharp and well lit.

Thank you, they are certainly making a mess of the garden. They were all taken in bright sunlight with my 400mm lens and I was quite surprised how well they came out

Gee what are they doing here Wayne they should be in the Wildlife Forum they are really great images. :2encou:
Looks like my garden those huge brown 100mm long ones make a great meal for the Butcherbirds.
My Tony loves giving them a headache then whistles to the BB and we watch in amazement as they fly off the phone cable and catch them on the wing
Those big ones are one of the Garden Critters I let him get rid off the other is the Cane Toad.. Thanks for sharing these :kewl:
