My daughter found a Cicada shedding his shell!

Our children's biology lesson for the day: Cicada shedding his shell, right in their hand! The Cicada is climbing up her arm, as if it were a tree, while the wings extend and dry.

    I love getting to see this! It is so cool to see wings extending after a molt, I was lucky enough to be by the side of a creek early one morning when the mayfly larvae all decided to crawl out on the rocks and shed their nymph form and it was amazing to see what started out as little lumps expand out into wings. Insects are so cool. Great photos!

    This reminds me of the book The Very Quiet Cricket. I never know how to pronounce that word. Lol! Very cool to see one in real life.. well a picture of real life.

    I love this @ironshield. Growing up in the deep south, the sound of the "Locusts" (as we called them) making that distinctive sound in the Evening was one of the most calming things for me. I love it then. Unfortunately, now I suffer from severe Tinnitus, so I basically Hear that sound 24/7/365 and it is maddening. Those Cicada's can bite too, not venomous, but just as A pinch sort of thing, so beware. Post upvoted.
