Day 182 of 2021



This is the back of the side mirror on one of our cars. 
At first I thought the green thing stuck to it 
was some leaf or tree debris from one of our recent storms. 
Upon closer inspection I could tell it was an insect of some kind.
When I looked even closer, 
I could see that the back and front sets of legs were stretched out straight. 
The antennae are extremely long. 
I've done a Google search and think this is probably a scudderia (katydid) nymph.

  2. Nature is an amazing master of disguise. You would never see this guy or gal among the leaves.
