Speckled Bush-cricket (Leptophyes punctatissima)

Sometimes you have to travel far to find the something you want to photograph or film.

Sometimes you literally just have to fall out of the front door and there it is staring right at you. Even though it's not supposed to be there during the day.

So it was with this Speckled Bush cricket a couple of years ago, as it wandered up and down my porch (alas, not Porsche) support.

With a bit of body contortion action, I was able to get this video from various angles and pretty close up.
