This Annual Cicada has just hatched from it's nymph stage after coming out of the ground. The Cicada will soon take flight to the upper reaches of the trees and start it's song to lure a female for mating. I really enjoy the sounds of these insects, but they are considerably less, as chemicals are poured on lawns for a fine green landscape. Here is a link to some information and their song.
