Hi Everyone:
Found this large katydid sitting on the garden fence today. With the lack of rain around here this summer, insects have been rather scarce so I was lucky to find him. All taken with the 60mm/D70 and I used the SB800 for two of them. I have no idea what those brown things are.
Close up of his face
I just thought I'd post this one so you could see what they look like underneath. I am more certain than ever that they used these things as the model for the movie "Aliens".
