We got beaned by these today on a nature hike through some wetlands . They were everywhere along the path, and I dared not open my mouth until we got to the forest at the other side of the wetlands.
An interesting and very detailed book on grasshoppers which I found free and in public domain at Google Books:
Grasshopper Land by Margaret Morely, 1909. There is an interesting section on Eastern Locusts with Biblical references to locusts - locusts of the Old Testament.

We've noticed an increase in the number of grasshoppers. Also more dragonflies, but the dragonflies eat the grasshoppers so I am happy to see them.
