Identity Crisis!

Bug or Leaf? Well both of course, it's a bug that looks like a leaf. It is VERY tiny, and I feel very lucky to have seen it. I was walking into work, carrying my backpack, purse, and had my camera around my neck and it was a hot a humid morning. Even though he was so tiny, he was noticeable to me on a reed of red fountain grass. I was sweating like crazy, but I think it was totally worth it.

 

Oh, as far as ID, I did some research, but I am not sure of the species. One I found, literally said Leaf Bug, LOL. Another said Leaf Katydid, and maybe it is a species of katydid, but don't all Katydids look like leaves? Okay, I'll shut up now, and let my fabulous contacts educate me. Love and thanks to them alll. I thought of so many of you when I saw this!! =o)
