Great pic! He looks like an "Alfred" to me. I have no idea why.

A leaf-hopper perhaps? I'm not really up on insect identification, though.

The winner is R lake! The name of this green guy is "Katydid." The picture above was taken last Saturday as I was coming out from convenience store. The yellow platform – not sure what it is called – is a car stopper when cars are parked. This new one was taken at Lowes.

Thank you for all your help everyone.
