Cool grasshopper in our yard

Spotted this grasshopper taking a break on our old tree branch cattle fencing decoration. He sure has some good colors for our area. Not sure where he went, but I understand that you do not want these in your yard or garden. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

A few more insect images to share

Take a look at a few insect photos I took over the past few days!

This insect was really interesting to look at. I have  no idea what it is, however the second picture shows how close it resembles hay. I know it came out blurry, but that is a small piece of hay next the insect. They look almost identical.

Here is a spider that is actually very, very small. I just zoomedin on him to show more detail.

And last we have a cool looking grasshopper mixedin with some mesquite tree trimmings.
