Okay, so I am a nerd for animals, but bugs don't usually get me too excited. A few nights ago I was walking my dog, and I saw a giant "leaf bug". It had to have been almost 4 inches long and 2.5 inches high. It was so cool that I wanted to see it up close so I got it to crawl onto a leaf so I could hold it up and get a better look. It was so big and awesome and pretty in its own way

When I got back inside the house, I went on google to try and identify it. I *think* it is actually a katydid. I've included a picture of something similar. It was just such a neat insect! Yes, I am a dork!
