ahmagah! SO cool. I'm totally with you. MUCH of the entertainment value for me re: gardening is the continual buggy surprise. And now that I have a macro lens, woo-hoo!
I know--I love the combination of flora-and-fauna appreciation!
As for this bug, I'm really not sure what it is. It's got what looks to me like a kind of katydid-ish face and shape, but the back seems less katydid-y.
Just to be clear: I don't work at the National Zoo--I just live near it. I'm originally from Detroit, most recently from Boston (where I got my Ph.D. in biology from Tufts University), and am now living in Washington, DC.

So, do you know what that is? Ballpark?
