Thank you, Maria, Karen, Team Brinez 2, Mayra, Nuwan, and Leuba for your very nice comments. They all mean so much to me. I found this in the morning after leaving the light on for moths, perhaps cicadas are positively phototactic too!

Great shot J !. It does look like a car grill - never seen such a close-up shot.
