My goodness, look at the meathooks on that thing! And they grow up to make such nice music. Great shot, good clarity on his little features!

I believe you have a very talented squirrel that is making some nice sculptures JimboB. A really great find and photographed very well.

You need claws like that to hang on like that. Another amazing close up of the larvae shell.

Another wonderful capture of the shell of this bug, I'm still chuckling about the last one, does bring back memories for me collecting them.

Great capture of this unique and rather creepy bug! I do know that there are Cicada Wasps that burrow in the ground and will leave their nests to hunt these and take them back to their nests. . ♪ ♫ :)sandi♪ =^..^=

Come over to the dark side, we have cookies. :)
Made a mistake in my previous comment. A 'cicade' (in Dutch) is an insect who hide itself in its own made froth. A 'cicada' (in English) is called in Dutch 'krekel', is much bigger than a 'cicade' and makes the typical 'chirping' sound. Hope this explanation makes clear my previous comment. Have however never seen a cicada larvae shell, so this is an amazing image to me Jimbob.

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By.
Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
It's hard to believe that they make any music at all. Nice shot of this little beasty though.

Very well taken macro shot Jim. but I do find them a bit spooky in a strange way.

A good macro, Jimbo. You should save those skins. When you get enough you can have 'em with a beer or two. Tasty! kinda like pork skins. Think your camera might have a but in it???.
Cool post.

Good close up JimBob but I like the other one better - I like the eye socket on the other. You'll have to let us know how long these hang around.

This is one time I'm glad you couldn't get any closer! Those damn things are mighty ugly! Great shot though! lol
