Every year round about June i start to hear the sound of Grasshoppers in the garden. I love the sound and love trying to see where the little things are. The thing is it is nearly august and i have not heard or seen a single grasshoper yet. Every time i go outside i listen for that familiar relaxing sound but i hear nothing. I wonder if something is preying on them or whether its been a bad year for breeding. Has anyone else noticed a lack of grasshoppers ?

Thanks for listening,
Dave

Hiya dave,

To be honest i havent noticed a difference this year, on the nice sunny days (which there arent to many at the mo) the feilds are teeming with them cherping away and yes i do argee it is a very relaxing sound to enjoy the sun with Very Happy
