Gall wasp?



I think this is the eggs of the gall wasp, but I am not totally sure... Anyway, it's a beautiful decoration of a dry gum leave.

Green Grasshopper or Katydid


This green beauty was sitting just a few meters from our back door today, on this cooler summer day. After a few very hot days it finally cooled down and that seems to come with more life in the garden. Not sure if it's a grass hopper or a katydid, but it didn't hop but flew to the wall when I came a little bit too close with my camera.
