Description
Caught in the act!
At least this time they were too busy to hide away and I was able to get a shot of them. They have an uncanny fear of the camera lens, hiding behind grass or stalks of wheat.
Two Milkweed locusts (Phymateus morbillosus) in the Swartland, Western Cape, South Africa.
Enjoy the day (38°C predicted here today)

Did you get to sample any of the nice wines they do up there above Cape town!
This must be the lust in locust, nice shot Clive.
How could she possible resist a bloke who dresses like that?! Wonderful.
Are you sure these are real? For us Europeans they look like plastic toys, I´ve never seen anything like this before.
@ Garageland...they sure are real and creapy! hehe Clive, this is a stunning shot! You know, I search for these often, but could not get one this far. Seems your insects down at Cape Town is more colourfull than our dung beatles though.
Great shot! You can't say they actually are discrete? ;o)
Fantastic critter-colors!
They're so colourful they don't look real! How gorgeous!
Great capture! very colourful creatures
Stunning capture Clive.
Wow...so colorful they almost look like plastic bugs!!! Nice capture!!
They really don't look real ... our northern eyes can't take in those sorts of colors! Fascinating!
All I can say is wow...my brain at midnight has given up:-)
