BIG BUG!!!

I was sitting on my front stoop and looked down and saw this guy on my door mat. I wasn't sure if he was alive or not so I gingerly reached over and touched it to discover that it was just a shell. So I picked it up and posed it several places and when my grandson arrived I managed to freak him out a little bit with the "Big Fly!"

Then I went over to sit on my patio swing and there was another one there! Reached over to pick that one up and it flew up and away......scared the bejeebers out of me!

(guess I deserved it after I teased Logan with the other one.

Cicadias are so

! Thats the only critter that had my JRT stumped..for a second. It was on it's back, spinning and buzzing in the driveway. Pete just stared at it with his head cocked........till it stopped for a second.

I like those bugs, they are really neat! We find the empty skins around here a lot. They are really pretty when they first shed the shell.

I like the cicadas just fine until they start "singing". For such a little thing, they sure make a lot of noise!

I , also, think they are very

bugs. And I even love their singing.
