Another "Pinky" comes to light


A rare pink form of a katydid in the genus Amblycorypha made the news in a big way back in 2009. It was discovered by Jan Kennedy at Killdeer Plains Wildlife Area, and you can read my posts about "Pinky" HERE, HERE, and HERE.

Well, another pink insect has come to light, and it is nearly as outrageous as the original Pinky. Tune in tomorrow - I'll share the photos then.

an incredible looking beast. I had no idea katydids had color phases. Can't wait to see what pinky will show up tomorrow on the blog.
