Field Notes

Habitat:

Wildlife habitat yard, on wooly butterfly bush.

Notes:

Nymphs are young katydids not fully grown. Katydid nymphs eat and grow, molting their skin several times. Each time the nymph sheds its skin it looks more like an adult. Finally, after its last molt, the nymph has changed into an adult katydid.
