I've seen cicadas and stick insects up close and personal .. cicadas
more often.. when they emerge in desert climes, as they did in the early
nine ties when
Richard and I were in Las Vegas at our /pied a terre, /they were
certainly not hard to spot.. not enough places to hide.
I like your two captures though too bad the skeeters where getting to
you.. which clearly prevented you getting the entire stick in your
photo, yes?

Thanks, Henk. Cicadas are usually quite hard to spot but that one started
chirping at about my head height while I was taking photos of the stick insect
(which are also quite adept at hiding).
I'm further south than the cyclone so we'll be unaffected. Up north they've
had an extremely wet summer and this certainly won't help after the damage
they've already suffered.
Cheers,
Dave

And here's a stick insect that's resident in our front garden.

Both photos taken using K5ii and FA 100mm f/2.8 macro.
