Please help I.D. This little thing is no bigger than a toothpick. But it's rather fast in moving, jumping about.

This is a nymph of a long-horned grasshopper (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae); possibly a bush katydid (Scudderia spp.) - see http://www.cirrusimage.com/Orthoptera/katydid_nymph_2.jpg and http://www.cirrusimage.com/orthoptera_katydid.htm

suunto, thank you. I've seen those katydids in adult form around here. Many thanks.
