Wordless Wednesday – Windshield Rider with LINKY

July 26, 2011 By 142 Comments

This little guy rode on my windshield today for over 30 minutes right at eye level. Creeped me out and fascinated me at the same time. I finally had to pull over and take pictures.

The first picture is a little blurry because he started moving. The second picture I boosted with Picnik.

    I can’t believe he hung on for that long or that you could drive with that in your eyeline for that long.
    Those are great photos, I LOVE taking photos of insects, especially grasshoppers. We have some really cool looking ones here in central FL with fuchia bellies. Now THAT would have gotten your attention. =)
    Have a great week.

    I had exactly the same thing happen this week. I just didn’t have a camera handy.
    Well done. Happy WW.

    I love the 2nd photo! It would creep me out too if he was right in front of me at eye level even if he was on the windshield.

    Wow! Great shots! On your first shot, it looks like a giant grasshopper passing on the road. And on the second shots, you got it perfectly right! Mr. grasshopper just wanna hitch a ride! :)
