Thanks to everyone for all the great comments. No one spotted that this baby grasshopper only had one leg - when I saw him, I presumed that this was the reason he was not hopping away in the same way that everything else did.
Used my 500T macro filter on the 70-300mm lens.

This is my favorite bug so far. The angle of the shot is nice, leaving some fuzzy background with the antennae shooting off to the right. . I like the rough edge of the leaf too. This is a good one.
