I'm working on the grasshopper ID but no luck so far. We were
very
interested to see a grasshopper above 85 ft. in a white pine, what
was
it living on? Might be resident in the lower hardwood canopy and
just
happened to be passing through. When it jumped it circled and landed
back in the pine, it was in no rush to leave the tree.
