Awesome pic!!
I'm on a Cicada hunt myself, I hear them at night around here now, and I haven't managed to capture one yet, so I'm on the hunt! Thanks for this photo, helps to encourage me to keep on keepin' on!

Good luck on your hunt!
After this guy's wings hardened, I (luckily) was walking by again and saw him fly up to my palm tree and heard him singing later!
