Hello amazing nature lovers...

As seen in some of the photos, this is a sickle bush cricket or katydid. Insects that usually jump on these leaves have their own color and uniqueness.

Red, yellow and green are the colors I often find in shrubs. While this one has a yellow color.

This is an insect that has its scientific name Phaneropterinae. The long legs are very strong jumping into the leaves. Its two long horns are barely caught on camera.

This is one of the small ones that I found, if it's an adult and big maybe my macro equipment is not adequate to shoot it.

In the small jump of the katyd this morning I managed to capture several photos from several different sides.

Its large eyes were clearly visible from shot to shot. Yes, this katyd has very large eyes and is suitable for macro shots.

They are cute and very cool, one of the bush dwellers that includes charming insects.
This one is one of their many species, and I'd like to find more in other colors another time.

Enjoy the photos of this species for today, I hope in a few days I will find them with other colors and uniqueness for sure.
