*Knock Knock*
"Who's there?"
"Cicada. Just me. Hangin' out here. On your door."
"Whooooa. I have not been waiting for you."
This guy is either 10 years early (last cicada crop we had in the area was in 2004) or he traveled across a state border to land on my screen door. What a trooper, but he probably won't find a mate. :(
I usually hate bugs, but these guys always intrigue me when they pop up. Their wings have a slight golden sheen, their eyes are an opaque red and their bodies are a cross between dark blue and black. In other words, ugly and pretty. Kind of geeked out when I saw this one.
In other news, who says you can't admire the great outdoors from the indoors?
I looked out my window this morning and saw these deer on my street, munching away.
All in all, a great day for spotting wildlife/insects!
