Locust??

Big green bug. Actually have no idea. I am sure someone here will tell us.

That would be a Katydid! The big camouflaged as a leaf bug...

Great catch, Don. And, you need to watch out for your camera image sensor: It gets dusty already.

I like the shot. Was the bug sitting on a windshield? It doesn't seem to be flying, because the wings are not open.
