My husband is developing an obsession with cicadas. He's always liked insects, but never really found "his bugs" but I think the mysterious goggle eye'd cicadas may have his heart.
I'm obtaining and leaving field guides in strategic locations about the apartment.
wish me luck!

@futurebird Can I appreciate bugs from afar?

@futurebird Can I appreciate bugs from afar?
Yes! Some of them may need their space.
But macro photos where you can see their eyes and what they are doing can make them less intimidating because you come to recognize they aren't just running around startling everyone for no reason. (exceptions may apply)

We have giant cicadas around here, and I never get to see them. Except that (1) one night a giant cicada entered my window on the 7th floor (the nearest tree was 3-4 stories tall); and (2) last month I almost stepped on one, on a concrete sidewalk between two patches of grass (by night but with some lighting)

@futurebird I do love me some cicada singing. I took this picture on Sunday when the little beastie gracefully ran into me.
Careful with that Cicada.
Cicada Used in 'Armed' Robbery
"Hands up!" A giant, eerie creature with wings and menacing red eyes. At any other time, such a description found here on Theresa's Haunted ...

My main but has always been and will always be the Monarch Butterfly but it doesn't exist in a vacuum--there are other bugs which affect it and so I have a lot of bugs as "my bug". -

I found mine at age 12
The great diving beetle, Dytiscus marginalis
It's been my favourite ever since, adults and larvae.
Different species of Dytiscus around here, Ontario, but only days after making a pond in my garden, there was a whizzing sound went by my ear, and one crashed into the water.
