Mating Bush Crickets!

(Scroll down!)

I found these two Restless Bush Crickets while I was starting to do yard work for my dad, they were both sitting inside the door of the shed. I put them in a container and put it inside so I could photograph them later. I came in a few hours later and glanced in their container and only saw one of them, and it looked unusually hump backed. Then I realized they were mating! Unlike most insects, the female is the one on top! She nibbles the male's forewings and then the male releases it's sperm packet before she can eat it too. Below are two shots of them individually on white.
