What a great idea!
That would be a welcome sound in middle of winter!
Thanks
Those Were The Days! by: Grammadot
When I was much younger I climbed a tree one night to find out what made all that racket, which I have taped to enjoy on a cold and dreary. winter evening.

Yes your photo is of the Common True Katydid.
And yes they do live in and near wooded areas. They are found in deciduous forests--often heard, but seldom seen, since it mostly lives in forest canopy.
They feed on various leaves of deciduous trees. This is the insect that sings the "katy-did, katy-didn't" song we hear in late summer in the evening and at night.
