KatydidsCan you identify this bug for us?
We found this on our crab apple tree- any idea what it is? My son is crazy with wonder about it! Oops… I forgot to give you our geographic location… We are in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, IL.
Thanks.

Hi Cheniceks,
This is an Oblong Winged Katydid, Amblycorypha oblongifolia. It ranges over most of the east and is found in deciduous woods and gardens, on trees and bushes. Males sing with a series of lisping chirps.
