Growing up, we called these guys locusts. Actually, according to Wikipedia, they are "unrelated to true locusts, which are varying species of swarming grasshoppers". Cicadas are related to leafhoppers and spittle bugs. Try the download for an "up close and personal view". If he'd moved, I'd have had a heart attack.....Lol!

Nice shots of a very different looking critter. Those things sure do get loud too.

Love the head-on shot; have never seen a cicada pic from that angle. Neat!

Excellent shots... Especially that second one! The face always reminds me of the grill on an old Oldsmobile sedan!
