A close-up, overhead view depicts a pile of numerous dried and seasoned insects, identified as grasshoppers or locusts, resting on a white, flat surface, likely a plate. The insects exhibit varied shades of brown, reddish-brown, and light yellowish-brown, with segmented bodies, visible legs, and some wing fragments. A granular, reddish-brown seasoning, possibly a spice blend, thickly coats many of the insects and is scattered across the white surface. The insects are densely clustered, occupying the majority of the frame. This scene is located in Sabon Tasha, Nigeria.
