* Subject-verb agreement: The subject "cloud" is singular, but the verb "approach" is plural. They should agree in number.
* Article: The article "a" before "field" should be "the" since the field is likely a specific one already mentioned or implied.
Here are some corrected versions of the sentence:
* A cloud of locusts approaches the field.
* A cloud of locusts approaches a field. (If it's any field, not a specific one)
* A cloud of locusts are approaching the field. (This is less common, but technically correct if emphasizing the plurality of locusts)
