Maria, just gently remove the froth and you can see the hopper within :)
I like the pattern on this one! Please consider adding to the global mission, The Hoppers: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8096...
I so often see the spittle and not the bug - marvelous that you got both. Very nice spotting!
Thank you Sckel !
