Handsome Meadow Katydid - Orchelimum pulchellum - Male
Fort Bragg, Cumberland County, North Carolina, USA
August 30, 2004
This Katydid was very hard to "catch". I stood within two feet of it for half an hour while it sang away before I could finally spot it. He was so sneaky...just kept rotating away from me on the stalk so I couldn't see him.
