I returned from my "walk" a little past five o'clock (actually, I was out exploring in an unfamiliar neighborhood an hour's ride away) I heard a loud chorus of cicadas and started looking for what I hoped would be there; and yes, this time I wasn't disappointed -- the guards hadn't beaten me to it!
Here is what twenty-two nymph shells look like in my palm:
And after I laid them out to dry out from the rain:
One of the shells was clinging to a tree next to an adult cicada. I tried to pick it up as well, and it flew up and grabbed onto me. Cute, no? Look at those plump little thighs -- reminds me of frog legs^^
