This isn't related to hunting but I thought it was interesting. I hope it's ok to post this. About 3 weeks ago my wife discovered a locust shedding it's shell. This sequence of pictures happened in about 30 minutes. I went back about 5 minutes after I took the last picture was taken and the locust was no where to be found. It's wings weren't developed enough to fly so I'm guessing a bird may have got it.

That looks like some alien from a sci-fi movie! We've been invaded! Run for your lives!

You are correct, but around here everyone calls them locust.
