What's Through The Looking Glass?

I was very surprised today when this locust landed on my windshield just as I reached a stoplight
before getting on the highway and quickly took a photo. It proceeded to walk across my windshield until I was off the on ramp and accelerated, then it flew away!

This Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly had all of this yesterday!
