Katydid . . .

When I made the first crop on this one, I tried to include everything I thought was important. Those little black pupils (or at least one of them) seemed to follow me everywhere as I walked around the birdbath. I was using my 80-400mm lens, (my favorite), so I had to stay about six feet or more back from my subject. And that can be a good thing

What an interesting looking bug! Sort of makes me think of a truck . . . with a scowling driver.

Thanks for sharing.

Ah-ha! I've been trying to think of what that flat face reminded me of, and that's it....the front of one of those flat nosed trucks. And the scowling driver who is hopefully and totally concentrating on driving.

HeeHee. You are welcome. (My secret in observation: I spent 4 years MARRIED to an over-the-road truck driver when I was young and particularly foolish. Even traveled with him one summer.)

That sounds like an exciting summer! I can only imagine the sights you got to see.
