So I was skimming the pool at about 3 am two nights ago (we've been doing a SLAM for black algae for about 3 weeks now and I suffer from insomnia so it seemed like a good time for it) and scooped out what I thought was a big leaf. The leaf was only halfway into the net so I went to tip it all the way in...then it stood up and shook out its wings 😳 It was huge and I'd never seen this bug before. Turns out we don't usually get these here, rescued 2. #katydid #insects
