Hey folks !! Doing something new right now. I've always meant to post the silly critters I've found while out and about, I've just never gotten around to it 😭😭 I'll try to ID the animals in my pics, though feel free to correct me if I get any wrong 😈😈 I'm posting insects here and I'll post the snakes n frogs next.

First off is this American Dagger Moth caterpillar. I don't recommend touching them - their bristles irritate skin ☹️ This guy was chill though.

Heres a MASSIVE praying mantis, I think a Chinese mantis? This guy was BIG, maybe about 6 or 7 inches long. Very calm, flew away into a tree after I took this pic.

Here's a SUPER SLAY cicada, either an Eastern Scissor Grinder or some Dog Day Cicada? I'm not really sure - this guy has a funky pattern. It let me get incredibly close (a FOOT AWAY IM SERIOUS)

Here are a WHOLE BUNCH of pics I took when the 17 year cicadas came out around 2 years ago. It was probably the coolest thing I've ever experienced in my life (so SO loud, but so fucking cool. THEY WERE EVERYWHERE!!! First time a cicada flew into my shirt also 😎😎😎) I LOOOOVE cicadas they're one of my favourite animals of all time 😭😭😭😭😭

Finally, the coolest damn guy I've ever seen in my life - a polyphemus moth. A POLYPHEMUS MOTH. Literally the coolest moth I have a picture of. It was MASSIVE. Such a beautiful moth 😭😭😭😭
