[QUOTE="FieroRumor, post: 1455, member: 53"] They look like a leaf. Pretty cool, they are pretty common near me (NY). one gross thing, if you pick them up on the top of their wings,, they will try kicking you off, wich so much force that they sometimes kick their own leg off. Pretty gross. When they are frightened, they sometimes secrete a large drop of goo from their mouth. also pretty gross ;) They make VERY VERY VERY loud "chit-chit" mating calls at night. They are so loud, that you want to throw your shoe at them, but they are hiding high up, hidden in a tree. Usually, you hear two of them "chit-chit", then a pause, then from another tree... "chut-chut". (a slightly different sounding one). this repeats all night, till your ears fall off. ;) Very cool looking bugs. [/QUOTE]
