Sure. We have a lot here too, and there aren't really that many types, but the males and females can look really different in certain species sometimes, like in Cardinal birds.

Thank you brandonjc13. I am horrible with grasshoppers and crickets

The female Carolina Locusts are typically darker or brown, like the one you found.
