Does anyone know what this is please? Spotted this morning while I was walking down a track just back of where I live in Albufeira. I have never seen anything looking like this. I would say it was about 5cm (2″) long. It was moving slowly but fairly steadily, pausing to rummage around in the gravel. A few seconds later is vanished into some long grass. ------------- Albufeira Resident www.algarvebus.info public transport information for the Algarve |

Tom. If you look up Mole Cricket on Google images it would appear to be like that bug in your photo. ------------- Colin |

Mole cricket indeed it is. No surprise we don't often see them, living underground as they do. Never heard of such a thing until now. ------------- Albufeira Resident www.algarvebus.info public transport information for the Algarve |
