Sometimes hearing the "W" word from members is the next best thing to hearing it from the judges. LOL

Awesome buggy capture Sue. I moved my Katydid all over the place on that branch. We spend a couple hours together. But this one being called a "stink bug" I don't think I would have messed with him to much. LOLOL #7877195

Sue Marshall August 22, 2009

OK, Queen Ann if you say so!! LOL

Stinky bug says thank you ~ I never did smell anything he was being a good stinky bug! :-)

I was trying to shoot a Katydid the other day and there was stuff in the way, so I tried to move it and Katydid jumped even further away in the bushes and I just couldn't get close enough to it!
Sounds like you had an up close and personal relationship with your Katydid! LOL :-) #7877266
