i don’t want to disappoint, but i think this will be the last set of bug pictures i post for a while. why? well, i’m lazy & not interested in scouring my backyard for another insect to photograph. besides, i’m sure y’all want to see pictures of things like the beach, the pups & various other shenanigans that may {or may not} take place at mi casa. no? well, whatever.
so, here is my latest installment for {semi} wordless – yet bug filled – wednesday. i’m not sure what kind of katydid this is, but it is indeed a katydid.
i harassed the hell out of this katydid. out of the 23 pictures i took {yes, 23!} there were only three that were fit for sharing. of course, i should consider myself lucky because had i not been watering the butterfly bush i would have never known there was a katydid hanging out on the plant. of course, had i not been hosing the plant down with water then the katydid would not have flown from one side of it to another…only to walk towards the center of the plant where i couldn’t get a good shot of it. silly bug.
anyways. enjoy…because this is it for the bug pictures. well, unless i find where those swallowtail larva went.
Your pics are a-mazing and I love those little bugs they are so cool!!! Hope you're having a wonderful week:)
Ohh…and sorry I didn't respond to your dairy question – but yes, we love them!!! Actually put a coupon for free delivery for 6 months and a free cooler in my recycle bin – I can dig it out if you want??
Katydids are obviously my “most favorite” bugs!
I have only come across them a handful of times in my entire lifetime and I have already seen two this past week: one in North Carolina while on vacation and one in South Carolina at my aunt's house.
