They're everywhere!

So this is just a real quick post to show you all that aren't here in beautiful AZ how full of "wildlife" this desert really is... take example "A" - our back yard.
Right now is Cricket season, no not the game where you hit a ball with a mallet, literally crickets! They are everywhere! See for yourself:

Yeah! See all those litte black specks - they are all grasshoppers ranging in different sizes from baby-size to kinda big and scary when they fly directly at your face-size! Oh well it could be worse I guess, glad there aren't as many scorpions as there are these little guys...yet anyway!
Oh and here is a picture J took and wants to show off - for those of you who don't know one of his (MANY) obsessions is bees... and yes they're out everywhere too!
