Migratory Bird Locust

Cyrtacanthacris tatarica

Description:

When it flew away, it looked like it was injured. Seems to have lost a leg.

Notes:

According to the Encyclopedia of Life there is "no taxonomic difference between locust and grasshopper." Locusts group together in swarms while the grasshopper doesn't.
