Leaf Hopper

Pogo · 07-02-2017, 12:44 PM

After church I mowed my yard. And I stopped to pick a stick that the dogs drug out into the yard. When I bent over to pick it up I noticed a cute little leaf hopper on a blade of grass. So I had to get my camera and take a picture of it.

Wow that is a cool looking little guy their Pogo. But strange the coloration as it does not seem to fit the natural patterns of nature for self preservation? I wonder if the colors represent some other poisonous insect telling predators to stay away?

Leaf Hopper? What do they do to the leaves, besides hop on them?
