A few minutes after photographing Mr. Spidey🕷️ yesterday, here comes four baby grasshoppers🦗 busy munching on an Ashitaba plant leaf🥬 nearby. The leaf they were clinging to was almost gone, there was very little of it left after they had bitten all the edges. I rarely see grasshoppers, so seeing a foursome was such a great surprise that I actually shouted with delight!😀 Even the kids in the neighborhood came over to see what I was up to and began picking on the grasshoppers. It's a good thing I had my camera ready to click before the grasshoppers jumped away one by one. The four baby grasshoppers just reminded me of the lucky four leaf clover🍀... Of course, I don't believe in such good luck, but it's just fun to think how lucky I was this day, especially since I was able to photograph four subjects in one hour... a splendid sky, a pretty flower, a cutie Itsy Bitsy spider, and awesome baby grasshoppers that I can use for my content here in Noise! Isn't it cool to have four in one? 😀 Well, about grasshoppers, have you had any short story known related to it? I, for one, recalled a favorite Filipino fable, "Si Langgam at si Tipaklong" (The Ant and the Grasshopper). I was surprised to learn that it has an English version, based on one of Aesop's fables. The plot is the same, which is about a happy-go-lucky grasshopper🦗 who does nothing but dance and have fun all year. And here comes his friend, the 🐜Ant, who, on the other hand, works nonstop all day! Until the rainy days🌧️ arrive and the lazy grasshopper runs out of food. However, the hardworking ant has an abundance of food to eat. The moral lesson of the story is that it is critical to work hard and to be prepared in the event of an adversity . The story focuses on the "virtues of hard work and planning for the future." What do you think of the lesson in the story, Noisepeeps? Do you agree with it?🤔 Peace and love💕 @Mitochondria Original content creator💯 North Caloocan, Philippines🇵🇭 PS: Last two pics enhanced by Snapseed
