Insect macro shots

I found these very young insects on my front lawn. I think they are either grasshoppers or locusts. I got out my big 70-210mm zoom lens and used its macro range to shoot all but the first two images. I like the results and now I wish I had a really good macro lens for better closeups

The sad thing is that these little buggers grow up to be very destructive insects that destroy lawns and decorative flowers, so they will meet a grueling demise from insect poison when they grown up.
