Out on the prairies of Saskatchewan in the fall a few years ago, when this flock of critters took off!
Do you prairie people know what they are?
If no one gets it right, I will later tell you.

Good going guys. Some good answers, but it's plain that jaydog knows just how big those prairie grass hoppers get!
I readied my 35mm camera, held it down around my knees, aimed slightly above the horizon, then made a dash into a weedy area. When a bunch of grasshoppers took to flight, I tripped the shutter. Tried it two or three times and came up with this.

Be fun with a 22 airgun to pick 'em off.:D
 
Ahh...and I was all paranoid last time I was in Sask...I thought the CFC was after me, but it was just a bloodsucking pesty mosquito...hang on a second...bloodsucking? ok it was a mosquito hired by the CFC
 
What did I win?????? :D:D

Cool photo and just cryptic enough to be challenging, but I have an edge on the rest of you. As a true hunter I challenge myself with as many species as possible and even have a special 'crop hopper' rifle......
