This bug is about 6 inches long. New to the south, I did a double-take the first time I saw one. I eventually motivated this one to move. It dropped to the ground, and I saw that those are long antennae between the extended front legs at upper right, extending from the head, near the center of this photo. Not at all photogenic -- but a curiosity. West Georgia.
Here's a possibly better shot that includes enlarged view of the head area.
a Drymus sylvaticus bug from the old quarry of Hastings Country Park, note shape of pronotum plus the two black stripes in the middle back of the wings, also teeth on underside of front femur as shown in comments.
I was walking around my beloved oak tree on Sunday afternoon. The sun was shinning brilliantly and warmly so everything was alright with the world, even a bugs' world.
I stopped short when a bright emerald green thing came into view. It was headed up to the leaves.
I thought "Wow! What a wonderful photo opportunity!" It turned out not as easy as it looked.
I used an additional 2x lens while shooting these macros. This tall coarse grass is the kind that I believe my grandmother used to call "johnson grass." The bug--I don't know. Maybe a "shield bug" variety.
And somebody came and took my hand
And I finally had to go
But Megan I just want you to know
That I waited as long as I could
I'm butter on a summer day when she's around.

This strange insect was on the outside of the bathroom window this afternoon. Anyone have any idea what it is?

That last afternoon looking for creatures was quite a disappointment as not a lot was seen in spite of good weather.
Another interesting bug was one welocome sighting.
