Tater,  where can

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Tater,  where can

Tater,  where can I find your kind?  What I mean I suppose is that I've found a few but they appeared to be dead.  Do they play possum?  I don't really want to tell you this but I am a Entomologist in 4-H and really want a potato beetle.  I started entomology before I found Cricket.  Tater, if you don't want to tell me, that's ok. 

What do you want to do with the potato beetle? I'm sure you can find lots of information about us and photos at a library or on the Internet. My friends and I are often found in the potato field at the edge of the Dewlap Forest or experimenting in the kitchen or laboratory. But Cricket Country is far from Colorado.

No offense, Tater, but your kind is not welcome in my backyard, so you should warn your freinds and relatives so we don't squish them and feed them to the ducks.
