Cricket
The cricket has 6 feet, and it can jump very high. The chirping of crickets is very loud and clear. The cricket has long and thin tentacles on his head and back. Its body is black，and its short head is round. It can dig holes and hide in it，and it lives in the holes.
The cricket lived in the grass, and it is an omnivorous insect. It eats other dead insects' bodies, grass, and plants' stalks or leaves. Crickets live in holes that under the ground. They usually dig the holes on October, and they like to live in the dry weather.
I saw the cricket and took a picture on 10/3/2016. I heard the chirp inside the grassland of blue ridge school, and I saw it when I came closer to it.

Hello Xulin and Welcome to the Project Noah community!
We hope you like the website as much as we do. There are many aspects to the site and community. The best way to get started is to read the FAQs at http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you can find all the tips, advice and "rules" of Project Noah. You, like the rest of the community, will be able to suggest IDs for species that you know (but that have not been identified), and make useful or encouraging comments on other users' spottings (and they on yours).
There are also "missions" you can join and add spottings to. See http://www.projectnoah.org/missions . A mission you should join is the http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/2004... to chose the best wild photo of 2016,only the spottings added to that mission are eligible.Note that most missions are "local". Be sure not to add a spotting to a mission that was outside of mission boundaries or theme :) Each mission has a map you may consult showing its range. We also maintain a blog archive http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we have posted previous articles from specialists from different geographical areas and categories of spottings, as well as wildlife "adventures".
So enjoy yourself, share, communicate, learn. See you around :)
