Cicadas are here!!

Over the weekend we were finally visited by our subterranean friends!  They have emerged to impose their temporary dominion, and we personally want to welcome our new red-eyed overlords. We've even rented out our reception desk to one in particular, Sammy the cicada. We've tried to cater to his needs, bringing him fresh branches and females. "Females!" he demands, and females we search for.

Here Sammy is in his new digs. You can't tell from this angle, but he's mooning the camera.

Here is Sammy's friend, Nancy the nymph. She's practicing for when she'll be able to fly into peoples' eyes.

Sammy attacked Andy for bringing him the wrong branches. We think he was just playing around, but the look in his eyes said we’d be wise to obey his every command.

Obviously, we can't express how excited we all are presently. Andy has to finish this post now, Sammy needs to use the computer.
