Extra! Extra! | Juvenile Katydid   Katydids are named because of the sound they make.  They have extremely long, thin antennae.  They have wings and can fly.  Nymphs (juveniles) look more like crickets or grasshoppers.  Katydids eat the leaves from the tops of trees and bushes.  They can be found in parks, gardens, fields, and woods. 

The Back Story   An extension tube reveals the detail in the Katydid.   Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
