Yes!

I saw another one up in Virginia, but when I looked at the photo I noticed it was slightly deformed (in ways indicative of a molt gone wrong at the last moment).

Also something that struck me (& I have a photo that demonstrates this, 'though it's also slightly out of focus) is that this girl's antennae were more then twice the length of her body, with the ovipositor!

I have some more photos of her that I can post...
