  1. Possibly the Crackling Grasshopper?

    Would be cool if it is, as it's quite an extraordinary species (it mimics a rattlesnake).

    1. Possibly... I don't remember noticing any yellow in the wings, or hearing anything except wings when it flew. However, I was looking the other direction when it started flying, and it landed right after I turned around, so it is possible I just didn't have enough time to notice those things.
