Adult Speckled Bush Cricket on Wall

Spotted this speckled bush cricket (Leptophyes puctatissima) sun-bathing on our wall. It is an adult of the same species that are in these photos. It was very aware of me and eventually jumped away after a couple of shots. I like the sun-cast shadow in this photo. Its ears are at the top of its knees.
