My daughter brought some little friends home. lol These are Cicada skins from after the nymph cicada has shed its skin to turn into an adult Cicada.
She found them on one of the trees. You can see here that there were quite a few of them on the tree.
They were all over the trunk of the tree.
This is how my daughter came back from walking the dog. She was wearing the skins like jewelry on her shirt. lol
I remember cicada cases - I haven't seen them in years.
ReplyDeleteI used to wear them just as your daughter is.
lol That's funny.
DeleteYeah, we have those all over our pine trees right now.
ReplyDeleteThey're yucky.
DeleteHow interesting.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Deleteewww :)
ReplyDeleteI know. lol
DeleteOur 17 year cicadas was in 2016. Thank god not this year!
ReplyDeletelol We have them every year.
DeleteEeeek! That's a big NO for me lol
ReplyDeleteMe too. lol
DeleteThose things really are creepy cool!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter seems to think so too.
DeleteI hear them buzz through much of August and September, but never see them. Very cool!
ReplyDeleteThey are so loud.
Deletethat's nice. We had some in the garden too and the dog wanted to eat them
ReplyDeleteSo did mine.
DeleteNow that is different. :)
ReplyDeletelmao My daughter is weird.
DeleteWow freaky
ReplyDeletelol Yes they are.
DeleteI'm gonna go with 'no' on the wearing, but I would definitely have grabbed one for 'my' kids at work to see.
ReplyDeleteYour daughter obviously has a great sense of humor and is not a wimp. :-D
I have an Eyeclops Bionicam which shows microscopic things on a TV screen. I have dead spiders and flies and other interesting found objects. (I don't kill stuff)
Yeah, she has a good sense of humor.
DeleteThose cicada skins are creepy...but cool. :)
ReplyDeleteCreepy...yes. lol
Deletelol well that adds to the wardrobe
ReplyDeleteThat's one way to see it.
DeleteI have necklace like that I wear. Interesting looks I get.
ReplyDeleteShe gets some interesting looks as well.
DeleteThat's not creepy at all LOL
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. lol
DeleteHa! We had them all over FL but I haven't seen them here in WA yet. I'm not sure if we have them.
ReplyDeleteWe're kind of boring on the insect front out here lol
Karen @ For What It's Worth
We don't have a lot of weird bugs but this is weird.
DeleteThose things always creeped me out when I was a kid. I haven't seen any skins since they've reemerged once again.
ReplyDeleteI see them here every year.
DeleteUgh how gross! I had bugs of all kinds and the thought of wearing their skins... yeauch! *shudder*
ReplyDeletelol MY daughter is strange.
DeleteI didn't know the young cicada had to shed its skin to become an adult. Nature is endlessly fascinating!
ReplyDeleteI found that out after moving here.
DeleteJust love them - they are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteVery cool! 👍✨
ReplyDeleteThanks.
