The Bush - Part 9

It is getting towards the end of our summer season and most of the grass is turning to seed and looks very pretty.
A small Elegant Grasshopper having lunch.
I left home so early that I still managed to catch this dew drop on a weed.
A wild flower......
This was unusual for me as the caterpillar normally builds a cacoon around itself but this one was protecting one spun in the grass. Anyone know what it going one here?
