User's notes
This katydid was up towards the top of the back fly screen door and in trying to get a better angle, I bumped the fly screen, disturbing the katydid, making it rise into a travelling position. I left it where it was and did not notice it later in the day. The area gets morning shade. (Sorry, this is from last year, I am catching up with some photos I have.)
