It was just luck to find it newly emerged and unable to fly.
I had never seen one from so close!
Nice timing!
Thanks Susan...it wasn't there the next morning.
great pic, perfect moment
Thanks Alice and Laura...it really was beautiful...all still & moist & green.
Oh fabulous!! What a great moment to capture. I don't think I've actually ever seen a cicada... just heard them! Those wings are quite something, and I love the shot of his face haha!
Claire that is translucent beauty!
