Crickets are not something rare here although this is the first one I'm seeing this year.
Trigonidium is a large genus of sword-tail crickets, typical of the tribe Trigonidiini. Records of occurrence are from Europe, Africa, tropical Asia, Australia and the Pacific islands;[2] many species endemic to Pacific islands including Hawaii have now been placed in the genus Nudilla.

To me these guys are bunch of noisemakers that can't tell when someone is trying to sleep😂😂. There are some other cricket types of cricket under this genus, sword-tail crickets, winged bush crickets or trigs. I was eager to check this guy out to see if it belongs to the same division as the Sickle-bearing bushcricket from one of my days post
It has the scientific classification as seen in this screenshot image from wiki
.
I got my answer already, feel free to check more about it👍
Thanks for viewing, leave your thoughts in the comment❤️❤️❤️

I got plenty of them here and also grasshoppers. Their noise totally drives us crazy. They start long before you go to bed. Frogs make a lot of noise as well, the owls do, the dogs bark and the wolves howl, just the cat is silent. LOL
I especially like the leaf. It's very clear (sorry cricket, you are not the one who who attracted my attention).
A happy day!
😂😂, the cricket continues his noise.
I can't remember the name of that leaf but when I used to work with my mum and dad on our old farm ( I was a kid then and often had injuries) they would use it to stop injuries from continuous bleeding. I prefered it to methylated sprit only that my mum would still use that when I got home.
I remember my wounds so my mum doesn't remember😂😂.
