They are also called long horned grasshopper. They belong to the family “Tettigoniidae”. However, these creatures are more related to Crickets than grasshoppers.
“It looked menacing, with its horns..
Its eyes told pages of anger,
It wanted to hide,
It hardly what it has already achieved..!!”

Amazing post…
I don’t know anything about insects in India, but it looks more like a katydid than a grasshopper.
I like the theme you use for your posts. it really accents your photos nicely.

You did well to get such a good picture of it. You can hear them all the time, but never see them.
Wow! Amazing.
