In this Dead and the Living shots, I caught a grasshopper coming out of its old skin this evening as the light was fading. By the time I grabbed the camera, the grasshopper had hung its old skin neatly on a garden stump, just like a coat hanger.

This is such a magical moment… I am so glad for what you were able to catch on camera!

Wow! Do they all hang their skin like this? I didn’t realize grasshoppers shed their skin. Fascinating!!!

I have seen a lot of shedding, but not hung neatly like this – I’m guessing it was new so I caught it in time. Thank you very much Sue.

Absolutely superb! It is as if the grasshopper has left a ghost of itself, as a reminder that it was here. 🙂
