Hitchhiker

This picture was taken last summer, the weekend before I had to return to work from my maternity leave.  We'd driven half an hour away to run some errands and when we were leaving to return home we saw that a grasshopper was on our windshield.  Obviously we thought he'd blow off soon, but he hung on, like an immigrant crossing the ocean at the turn of the last century, and emigrated to our locale.  I shot a couple of pictures of him on the roof of the car before he went his way and we went ours.
