Oh yes, Katy did! (Katydids/Bush Crickets)
This week we look at my favorite group of orthoptera, tettigoniidae also known as katydids and bush crickets. Many people get these insects confused for others like grasshoppers or even cicadas (because of their songs) but they hold a special place in the insect class. Today we learn about their songs, behaviors, and much more.
