Nice shot Leo, We are already hearing them here in Kentucky/

Char

Thanks, Dkord/Char!

Dkord - This is only an empty shell. The cicada has already been emerged out. These guys can live underground for quite a few years before they come out from the dirt and emerge as adult cicada. Once becoming adult, they can only live for a very short time (if I remember correctly, they can only live for a few days). Poor guys! So, their mission is to MATE!!!

In Florida, they have year round passes to Disney World. Most excellent shot, extremely crisp and clear. Your shots keep getting better and better.

Great picture!

I've not seen the live "nymph" .. only the discarded husk...

Nice shot!

Thanks everyone for your kind words and glad that you like it.

BE - This is really encouraging. I think it's just practice + luck; and of course my passion plays an important role as well. Thank you very much!

Nice shot.
It is funny that I got almost exactly the same shot few days ago
