BUSTED!!

I am talking on the phone with my good friend and I saw him starting to make his way to my basil.  I had left the basil out of its bag to air out a little bit and there he was ready to partake.  I said a few cuss words and quickly covered my plant again.  Here he is

Bush Cricket Green Grasshopper Tettigonia Veridissima. 

No, I could not kill him!

Let me be honest, I can't even kill a spider that is crawling around.  Yes, I am that freak that scoops it up and puts it back outside where it belongs.  The insect killing jobs are left to my kitty, but no she was napping and couldn't be bothered to have some fun.  She is totally missing out!
