Florida: The Orange Grasshopper

Florida's Eastern Lubber grasshopper, shown below, is one of the most clumsy yet beautiful bugs I've seen.  They have only one predator in Florida and therefore are abundant and not shy in their habitats.  Their bright colors serve as a warning to other animals that they are poisonous.  You can learn more about these odd creatures on their wikipedia page.
