Curacao Insect

Hello all, something a bit different tonight, I found this tiny little Insect out back on the tip of an Agave spine and thought it was interesting enough to send out.  I think it’s some kind of Katydid or grasshopper and I knew someone on the list would be able to confirm this as, yes it is, or no it’s not!  I watched this tiny little thing for quite awhile as he ever so slowly made his way from the tip down eating all the new white growth that was covering the spine.  Well, anyways for those of you who hate bugs I apologize, but as a photographer I am always on the lookout for anything of interest big or small, I love it all!
 
Today it was work as usual except I had to race home twice to check on the puppies.  The good news is, I found a puppy babysitter and she starts tomorrow!  Yeah!!  I will take both of them over to my friend Eveline’s house tomorrow morning and she will keep them till Thursday, then I will watch them again Friday and Saturday and then hopefully they will go back to her again for a few more days.  Eveline runs a dog sitting service and as some of you may know she also used to be one of our dolphin trainers as well so they should be in good hands.
 
It’s still raining here, the island is looking very green and it’s very muddy.  I took the dogs for an hour walk tonight with a friend and his dogs and everyone had a great time.  Inca is currently in bed and Indi is upstairs playing with the puppies which reminds me I better go check on them!
 
See you tomorrow, Barry
