@ConBoekel try to get a few more pics so can see clearly from above. Side view is really good but sometimes for some species need some more angles.

Thanks Clarehd. I do try but the hoppers don't always appreciate my attempts! The species that are on a grass stem and circle away from the photographer are a particular challenge!
