[possumnest]

cicada season in north america is coming to a close, so keep your passion for cicadas burning eternal with this Big Cool Sticker that i sell on my etsy.com :-) let it serve as a reminder to live the simple life the way cicadas do - growing, screaming, fucking, dying.

No time for formal cicada art yet, but here's a little pencil sketch to commemorate the spectacular emergence of Brood XIII!

Great news for anyone in the brown or light blue areas! You may be seeing a whole lot of cicadas in spring :)

These 13 and 17-year periodical cicadas are in the genus Magicicada and will look just like those from brood X a few years ago:

Note: Some of brood XIII emerged early in 2020, so if you were in the Chicago area at the time, you may have seen some.

Brood XIX and Brood XIII are making their way to center stage! Join Insectarium host Dr. Jessica L Ware as she debunks some myths you may have heard and explains what these insects are up to during their time above ground.

Have you started seeing cicadas in your neighborhood? Let us know in the comments!

Ah fuck there’s a cicada in my kitchen. Never seen this kind before, I guess it’s the superbrood?

Cicada season is upon us here in middle Georgia!! They have been emerging in large numbers for about a week (that I’ve been paying attention to anyway). One of my FAVORITE insects!! Enjoy a few photos and a video I’ve snapped recently!

I made Benoit in honor of the periodical Magicicadas. Unfortunately, where I live is just slightly further north (about 100 miles) than where they are emerging🖤

Finally these damn cicada stickers are done! You can get them on my Etsy shop here!

I want to buy cicada merch in celebration of the periodical emergence this year.

If anyone has anything to recommend, especially anything by small independent artists, I would really appreciate it!! (It's so easy to find mass-produced stuff, but it's also more likely to be cheaply made or possibly a stolen design, y'know?)

I'm looking for anything cicada-related, but especially things I can wear!
