Tiny hopper nymph

This tiny (about 2mm) hopper nymph would not let me get a profile shot. When I moved around, it would turn to face me. So this is what I ended up with. Shot @ 2x ( Tam 90mm + 68mm tubes) then cropped.

At least you got him.
A hopper landed on my mouse. He waited patiently while i got a camera, changed lenses and added the flash units. He waited while i set my exposure and focus; then jumped as i reached for the shutter button.
I swear heard snickering as he jumped.

Funny story but oh so true. Those little gold or green metallic long legged flies also do the same thing. They also hear the shutter click & off they go. But with these flies, they instantly come back to the same location. They don't snicker, the say "Neener, neener".At least you got him. A hopper landed on my mouse.
