Big ugly bug
You know a man loves you when…
He holds a big ugly bug for you!
and patiently lets you take picture after picture.
We don’t see many cicadas around here.
When I do see one I always remember a story I heard once…
About one jumping up off of the ground and getting stuck in a ladies pantyhose!
Now that… would be something to see.
Did you see something fun today?

Wow. They are ugly, lol. Aw, love…
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. that is love right there. I wouldn’t consider touching that thing. ha ha
Dang. That is one big ugly bug.
Some people eat those.
those are great fun to play with…if you wet their wings, they can’t fly. you can make little harnesses out of string for them too
it doesn’t look too scary
We used to call those jarflies when I was a wee laddie!
a face only its mother could love…
What did I see that was fun today? The parking lot that said One Way… it meant Away From School!
I love cicadas…ugly or not
Great shots!
I saw the Chargers kick the Jets butts on Monday Night Football! That was a lot of fun!

I do NOT like buggy bugs!
BUT… I do love that your husband loves you that much, Angi.
You deserve a good man like him!
Neat, I’ve never seen one up close before!
*shudders* That’s why I don’t wear pantyhose! Interesting bug. I would rather not meet him in person, though.
FUNNY SIGHTS? I had a close look at the mirror this morning, that’s enough fun for a week, thank you. I love cicadas because of their sound, was the lady a tourist? And who helped her to get the poor cicada out of its net? … Nice manicure your darling man shows! A screaming for a little bit of hand cream, but this might scare the cicadas and their violins away hahaha, boys and cream? How you all call the chirping sound they produce for mating, ehem, not the boys, I mean the cicadas? The boy’s chirping sound might deserve a description too. Ow! I better go and get my second coffee BEFORE writing comments!
They sure are ugly but you take some beautiful pictures.
Back in high school, we had one of the cicada infestations here. I hated it because the cicadas were absolutely everywhere. They’d fly in your face and scare you. They’re neat looking but really disgusting!
YUK!!!! But great pictures though!!!!!
what disgusting ugly things. We find their shells all over the place and their noise is a part of summer around here.
Icky! I just took a picture of a bug like that
Nice pictures.
I spent the whole day caching with Mary Ann, so I saw 120 photos worth of fun stuff, and a couple fun things I didn’t get to capture.
i love that insect. it makes such beautiful noise. when i was a kid we would really search up the trees or the grasses whenever we hear then… limited time we have coz’ the sun’s about to come down.
do you have fireflies?
Ah… the beginnings of a beautiful love affair?
@Renatojr3 - We do! But they are outof season now, they are particularly busy the end of may through the beginning of July around here, They wer beautiful this year and I tried to capture them, but it was too dark.
My, Mr. Cicada, what big eyes you have….
They kinda bug me!
Mornin Glorie……. you’d know that man loves you even if he weren’t brave enough to hold a bug….. and now I know what a jarfly is too…I saw lots of fun stuff yesterday….I took most of the day off and went thrift store shoppin……. I got a rooster made out of red and yellow beads….now go get some rest……
Oh, ewww…. Too creepy crawly for me. I saw mountains today though – big ones
@NyteMaire - I bet you two are having a BLAST!!!!
lotus in the canal…i mean, past flower.. The vegetable part….could EAT it!
And the cicada–he was very patient too!
that is one ugly bug.
that cicada’s got camouflage colours, like a little army cicada
I will never sleep tonight— EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!
