Super tiny one on hand, found at an NYC community garden

I think this was upstate, but in any case, it is trying to bite me

Enjoying the view from my hand

Looks almost like a lizard from this angle

Another head on shot but not as fierce, different species but which I wonder

Yupp, I am still here

I like the diving position, anchored by two thin legs up top

This pic does not do it justice, the lens couldn't handle such a vibrant contrast of colors

Looks like a Barney's ad for nature-inspired jewelry.

So many shades of green!

From an NYC community garden

Such thin legs, high stepping into another flower

Teeniest potbelly in the natural world

Green and yellow, another great contrast of colors

Duo sharing a stem

One of the bigger ones, I wonder if they lose color as they age?

Still has some fun coloring but sparser than the rest

Their antennae look more like party hats

A differently shaped numph, gotta be a katydid, right?

Same one head one, ohhh, fierce

Paler less colorful than the others but the legs and shape must be katydid, see me trying to convince myself?

Whatever it is, it's cute, especially when peering down with long dropping antennae

Scudder's Bush Katydid nymph, wahoo, an ID!
