AVB Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 Haven’t seen any grasshoppers for years but there have been quite a few in my garden this year. Also had a large slowworm and a small lizard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not seen a newt for years, used to catch them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTaylor91 Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 Loads of grasshoppers on today’s walk on the peat moors. The inner child in me did try and catch one, not as quick as I used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonic69 Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 The future of our meat industry, get them caught and get a jump on the competition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel b3 Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 I love the sound of grasshoppers. As soon as I hear that rasp, I'm instantly transported back to my childhood , sitting in long grass with the sun warming my face , and not a care in the world.👍.
