Thread-legged Katydid

Around Home, Southeastern Arizona

Our temps are in the high 30°'s to low 40°'s at night and the high 60°'s to low 70°'s during the day.
Still, I was surprised to see this lovely little Katydid hanging on to the side of our travel trailer a few days ago.
We're going to visit the Butterflies at the Tucson Botanical Gardens in Tucson today!
I'll catch up with my comments to you tonight.

Canon EOS 20D ,Sigma 150mm f/2.8 APO EX Macro DG HSM
1/4000s f/4.5 at 150.0mm iso400 full exif

Super series of the katydid. Nice how you started very close-up then moved away to show different aspects of the insect. V
