The year of the black prince ….(the deafening sounds of summer)

The neighborhood is a buzz with the yearly invasion of cicardas. We have a concerntration of black princes in our yard all congregating on this gum tree. Standing underneath you actually would get wet and it’s not raining!

I did spot one greengrocer earlier in the season which is odd as they usually dominate the distribution.

I was pleased to see this little creature.
