Posted: Sun Jan 01, 2012 3:46 pmI was busy working in the garden when I came across the critter. I grabed the camera and flashes and took just three/four shots and proceeded to carry on with my garden duties. In hindsight I should have taken my time and taken a few more shots over the period of time through the full emergence. I returned 1/2 hour later to find the Cicada had flown leaving just the discarded shell behind.
