Hey Rick.... I gotta know!
Did you Photoshop that critter in the shot or do you really have three pound Locusts where you live?
It's an Eastern Lubber and it's not even fully grown.
And just for the record, I use the free editing website called
Picnik which has pretty limited capabilities. I wouldn't even know how to create a photo like that lubber one.
But I do know how I took that photo. So just in case anyone has any doubts, I posted some more
lubber photos in DW's Lounge.
