My boys found this 2 1/2 inch bug clinging to my kitchen window this morning. This is where I wish I had a Macro lens. I used my Nikkor 24-70mm lens and manually focused on the this big bugs head. I could not find this thing on the internet to give a description of what it is, but it looks like a grasshopper on steroids. If anyone knows what this thing is, do tell.

Nikon D800(e). Nikkor 24-70mm (AF-S) 1:2.8 (N). Settings 100 ISO, f/4, 70mm @ 1/50 sec. I cropped, and edited, the picture in Lightroom (5).
