Bugs

Lots of bugs here.  The stick bug was at our service project.  The cicada shells are clinging to our front fence.  It is end of summer here and the cicadas are sawing away all the time.  They are actually blue and green and shimmery in person.  These are just their skins they have shed.  They still stick to the fence like glue with their strong little claws even after they are gone. 

Then there are Wetas.  This one's body is only about 2 inches long.  There are a couple different kinds and they can get 6 inches long.
