Katydids

Here are a couple of Katydids from the garden after a long rain.

I posted this in the crit forum, but I think they will get more attention here.



Fork-tailed Bush Katydid, Scudderia furcata

Sorry I didn't look at them in the crit forum.
These are very good photos, could be used in a textbook. I like the livlely greens of the insect contrasted with the browns of some of the foilage.

EDIT
Did not mean to repost the pics!
