Unwelcomed Diners

I decided to check on the blueberry bushes I planted earlier this year and was not pleased to find someone chomping away on the leaves. See if you can find the well-camouflaged katydid in the photo above. Normally, I prefer not to disrupt the ecological web in which we live. I must admit, however, a special affinity for these blueberry bushes and the anticipation of delicious quarter-sized berries at some point. Fueled by a great sense of outrage, I flicked the katydid into a new time zone. Later, while out for a walk in the neighborhood, I encountered another unwelcomed diner. She was so acclimated to humans that when I walked over to punch her in the nose, she simply stood there and watched until I opted for a photo instead of a confrontation.
