Great green bush cricket — size comparison — facts and sources
The great green bush-cricket inhabits dense meadow, scrub and garden vegetation, hunting small insects among other prey. Long wings permit flight but it often remains concealed high among leaves.
Males produce loud repeated signals from afternoon to night. Eggs survive colder months; young undergo successive moults and gain full wings only at maturity.
