Thread updated with much better photos! :c)

I hear this cricket frequently in the summer along the trails through the woods. They sing on the ground, in the leaf litter. We don't hear them in the meadows, only in the woods. They sound kind of like an insect-voiced rendition of the "dee, dee, dee" call of a chickadee

Thanks for any leads on this cool critter!
