Just out in my back yard taking pics of the pond and whatnot and I guess this guy didn't like me spying on him...
I didn't even realize he was looking at me until I saw it on the camera's display...

Anyone know what this is? I think it might be some type of locust or large grasshopper, but I'm not sure.

Katydid of some sort? That's my best guess. That sucker's huge!

This guy was about 12" long. I was leaving my tent to "water the grass" while camping and came across this guy. He was eating the cousin of the green fellow above

Nom Nom Nom

I posted on the macro forum of POTN and several people also said it was a katydid. One person was more specific and said, "It's the nymph of a Common green bush-cricket, Phaneroptera nana".

Thanks!
