Camel crickets don't have wings, they're the silent hairy weirdos lurking in basements and crawlspaces. Field crickets are the ones you hear.
Their bodies are arched ... like a camel ... and they have oversized back legs. So big that they're sometimes mistaken for spiders, hence their nickname 'sprickets'.
