Katydid Eating Chicory Pollen

A few weeks ago I posted another picture of this lovely Katydid. I managed to get this close-up of it eating pollen, which I was pretty happy about!

In case you didn't get to read the information I posted on the last picture, here it is again:

Katydids are in the same order of insects as crickets and grasshoppers, and another name for Katydid is "bush-cricket"! :) However, yet another name for these cool insects is "long-horned grasshoppers", though they are more like crickets than grasshoppers. There are about 255 species in North America, but the majority of species live in the tropical regions of the world.

If you would like to know more about these gorgeous insects, Wiki has a page here: Wiki: Katydid (Tettigoniidae)
