What IS this? We shared our picnic table with it stopping for lunch on a long road trip from Texas to Oklahoma. Looks a little like a grasshopper, but I couldn’t easily identify it at bugguide.net . Love the antennae. Any idea?
My four kids and I love bugs and your site. Thanks for all you do to keep our budding entomologists busy.
