Scudder's bush katydid nymph

Your insect is a Scudder's bush katydid nymph. It is a young katydid...related to grasshoppers and crickets.
The eggs overwinter and start hatching in spring....so that is a relatively newly hatched katydid. They feed on leaves of deciduous trees and shrubs, but are NOT a pest.

I found one of these in my house one winter and reared it to an adult by feeding it hibiscus flowers and other such food. Neat critters to watch!
Thanks for the great photo!
