very neat bug, its body looks like experimental planes from 1950's :-)

What an excellent macro capture. Great work!

Great macro. It does look like some kind of cicada. Ours (US) have red eyes though. The cyclical ones do a lot of damage to trees.

Not sure I agree with "Guest" and not sure where he or she is from. It was seen today, May, smaller than cicadas we normally see in these parts. (January-February is our cicada season). I have also seen these around in the past.

Ooooo, very nice! Reminds me my childhood...

Excellent photograph. It is one of the 3 types of Cicadas that are predicted to emerge between May and June. They surface once every 17 years. The last time they emerged from the ground was in 1987.
