This Grasshopper spent several weeks in a hibiscus plant on my patio, finding the plant to be nutritious as seen in my post Eating the Best Part. He did a job on the leaves, too.

When he started to turn brown it happened quickly.

The last time I saw him he hadn’t changed much more, but he did show me his other side.

Gorgeous green grasshopper growing great, gorging good greenery. 🙂
Grand 😁!
Great post!! 😊
Thank you!
Fascinating!
I’m sorry I didn’t get more images in between, I really didn’t realize how much he was growing and changing. Or that he would stay right there for so long — it was at least four weeks.
He’ll probably be back next year ☺️
And I’ll be more prepared!
☺️ Maybe you can even get a shot a day … looks like he changes rapidly!
