1. That must be true. Lovely haiku, Bjorn!

2. very cool, haiku both the words and the picture.

3. a grasshopper jumped on my face the other day, first i’ve seen in ages. i also noticed the temperature change on the very same day, we had to close all the windows in the office in the afternoon for the first time. interesting…

4. Beautiful but please tell the grasshoppers to not rush winters arrival 🙂

5. I, too, was feeling the approach of winter, but now we are having Indian Summer! One can never tell in New England,,.

6. Oh, our grasshoppers are out now. Never really thought of them as a sign of autumn but it is just a few weeks away. Very nice haiku.

7. Last winter didn’t want to leave and the next is approaching. Even grasshoppers might get wrong ideas. 🙂 But the haiku is marvelous!

8. Yes, they have first option and suck the young rice shoots dry. Pity the farmers! Nicely Bjorn!
