Thanks @RogerF , looks like a good match.
For such a quick family visit I was very glad to find these grasshoppers.

A very flighty species and quite difficult to photograph. I have a few photos from the tropics.

Yes they were very flighty. I had time chase one for ages before I could get a picture.
Is this a confirmed ID?
