Found the following info on the pink katydid:
"Pink katydids are a color morph of the green katydid and were first discovered in 1887. They are relatively uncommon. Only one of about 500 has this pink pigmentation, also known as erythrism."

Guess I was just lucky to spot it! Probably means I have 499 green ones out there.
