He googled it and found this amazing link on cicadas. When I went to visit my folks a week ago there was a photo of one with the name "Masked Devil". I get the masks bit but I couldn't figure out why the 'devil' until I looked at your photos. If you look at the segment on its back you can see two little triangles that look like devil's horns.<br /><br />My camera is a tele-photo, not a macro. My other camera died. Dad gave me his Nikon D70 which is wonderful but at the moment I can't afford to buy a macro lens to fit it. That's why the photos on my blog are from a distance. I would have loved to have had macro pics of the cicada coming out of its shell.<br /><br />Wasn't that snow yesterday crazy.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14187015621731673279noreply@blogger.com
