Field Notes

Description:

I found this cicada by listening to the insect click, in response to other insects. This cicada blended in so well that it took awhile to spot.

Thanks, I got a new camera. Not sure I can get a shot of the top of the thorax or not, but it is fun to try. :)

Nice one, Karen. I can't narrow it down further without a shot of the top of the thorax.
