Spotty Hopper



Look what I have found for you today - a very spotty bug!
A Green & Black Planthopper.
It was on one of the house flyscreens.



This bug is somewhat like a small cicada - it likes to suck sap.
Love those beady orange eyes!



It's bright green abdomen is quite a contrast in colour to the rest of the body.  


You can see that it is not very big here in this photo.


It was quite tricky to photograph as it was inclined to hop/spring around the room.

I hope you enjoyed today's post.
Have a great week, everyone.
Cheerio for now

Your photos aren't working for some reason. They are pointing to a local computer rather than an internet address, so aren't accessible.

Thanks, Vireya. All fixed now...
