Raised in Iowa mom said if those kadydids stop singing you get in the cellar and it happened not long after she said that, that a storm rolled in and they stopped singing we ran for the cellar and the tornado just missed us. Back in 1965 no where near a town you watched the wildlife

I've watched shows where they get "up close and personal" into every animal and insect's life on earth and in the waters of the planet. This is one of the insects that I thought highly of.

Katydids are also yummy chocolates (no insects in them)

masterridley, yes and no I was up in the air between either a leaf or insects and of course after using the 50/50 option I get the same answer that I was trying to choose from but I did guess right

masterridley, No, the picture did not help me. I saw a plant and no insect. Funny thing is it sounds like an insect that has been attacking citrus trees. I must admit I am a little off tonight. I know I will bounce back though. I am “always learning”. Hats off to the developers of this game. I love this app a lot. God bless all!

It says that they eat leaves and insects . . I just wonder if they think they’re eating a leaf when in fact it’s their cousin!?? 😲
