Arthropod. Unlike grasshoppers and crickets, both male and female katydids make sounds by rubbing their forewings (front wings) together to “sing” to each other. Katydids hear each other with ears on their front legs. They just have to move their front legs to hear in any direction! Katydids spend most of their time at the tops of trees where most of the leaves are, and they can jump up to 20 times their body length!

Not great at botany, but I know this came from a tree of some sort.

Leaf from the Bullocks Heart tree. (This is what my mother called it but I cannot find anything by that name that looks like this).The actual leaf is heat shaped with this spider web mesh of red veins.

As my wife and I were having evening coffee together on the patio, this Hydrangea leaf in the garden, backlit with the warm light of the setting sun, caught my eye... I'm happy with how it turned out...
