Cicada Moult

Cicada Moult
1 note and link above!

While I was taking pictures of the skink, I noticed there was also a little blue-belly lizard nearby. I took some pictures of him too, and then I noticed something next to the lizard. A cicada molt!! It was in such good condition that I held it up for a picture! If you want to see an awesome picture of a cicada emerging from one of these moults, please visit Jim Abbot's stream to see this picture: New Life

Beautifully taken, it looks (to a non-expert) the same as they do here.

What a great find..........and a superb capture. The details you've captured are amazing! You must have really steady hands to hold the camera AND the subject one handed, and still get a perfectly focused shot!!

............and you've done it to me again! I innocently click on a link you provided (above) and by the time I get back to my page an hour of my life has gone by!
