Thank you for your report! I can't clearly see the shape of the wings or the little black speckles on the back and legs that would mark this as Mediterranean katydid rather than our native Fork-tailed katydid. At any rate, the Mediterranean katydid is established all down the valley at least to Roseburg now. They haven't been reported doing any damage.
