The obligatory sunset shot. You were waiting, of course. https://t.co/GKpLfo3EB0 https://t.co/dZ1DLRIgu5

Maybe the cicada is my spirit animal? Some of y'all are monarchs, others painted ladies-- that's well and good.
"They have an exceptionally loud song. Most cicadas are cryptic, singing at night to avoid predators. The periodic cicadas spend most of their lives as underground nymphs, emerging only after 13 or 17 years, which may reduce losses by starving their predators and eventually emerging in huge numbers which overwhelm and satiate any remaining predators.
Cicadas have been featured in literature since the time of Homer's Iliad, and as motifs in art from the Chinese Shang dynasty. They have been used in myths and folklore to represent carefree living and immortality."
