Yearly Tibicen Cicada

I found cicada shells on our trees this year. I never noticed them before but was more observant this summer especially after last year's 17 yr cicada. They are not as noisy as the 17 yr variety.

Isabelle saw this one molting this morning and by the time it was finally out Tyler and I saw a Robin pick it for breakfast off the tree. Yummy.
