Morphing Cicada

Every fall I see dozens of the empty cicada shells on the sides of pine trees but this was the first time I watched one struggle to shed his old skin

Terry - That is an amazing photo. . .Considering that they only do that about every seven years or so:-) I agree it looks like an "alien."
