Katydid Don't!

So right after my first post today, I walked to the front yard to turn on the water for my bromeliads and check on the doves' nest in the ficus tree. I noticed another critter in my nasturtiums though. A katydid! In Redondo Beach?! I have such fond memories of these buggers from being a little boy in Kentucky, that I don't have the heart to remove him even though he's obviously chowing down on my plants.
