Bug I.D.?
I was shooting lilies late yesterday when this little guy wandered through my frame. Anyone out there know what it is? Thanks for having a look.

D70s, 18-70@ 70mm, +4 diopter, 1/40 sec @ f/4.5, cropped

A tree cricket nymph. It will take me a while to locate the species. I should have it somewhere, but I'll probably forget to look it up until sometime in the distant future. If you get a completely out of context email from me one of these days...

Thanks, Dan. I thought it looked like something from the cricket family. Don't worry about finding the species (unless it's going to keep you up at night). I was just looking for a ballpark ID.
