Katydid - excellent camouflage!

This katydid did a fabulous job of matching the castor bean leaf - right down to the red leaf veins.

Although the cicadas are far more attention-seeking and thus identified as "summer insects", the katydids are far more intersting to watch and have always been my fav summer bug.
As a kid I would take different patterns of coloured paper out into the garden to gently place a katydid on a sheet and watch the colour change...
