These photos were taken last night, while I was working on the computer (when I say ‘working’, I mean tweeting or blogging, or possibly playing with photos). To be honest I can’t now remember. Anyway, while I was typing I felt the merest tickle of something on the underside of my wrist. It was a bush cricket, calmly striding under my hands as I typed away.
I’m not sure how it got in here (best guess is that it hitched a lift on me when I’d been out in the garden), but they are delightful, colourful creatures and before I returned it to the garden I took a few photos.
And this final link is for those who were misled by the title and were after a game of cricket… Desktop Cricket (game).
Camera note: all shots taken with the Canon 7D and EF 100mm f/2.8L macro IS USM lens.
