I was so lucky to witness a cicada molting the other night. Truly one of the most beautiful moments I have witnessed in nature. The cicada's wings after it had freshly molted were perfect and beautiful shades of green and yellow.

You will hold on tight to this relic of me, but look inside, I am long gone, and no more, and all that is left of me crumbles into dust in your hand.

And I know it's true, that visions are seldom what they seem

when i was on my “cicada trip” in illinois, i found a lot of cicadas that died while molting. after 17 years underground, dying during their big transition. i found it very sad but also kind of beautifully cool? i had to draw it!
when these types of cicadas are molting, they’re white as their exoskeleton hasn’t hardened yet. their exoskeleton becomes black as it hardens

normal fan activities like going to all the regions in DAI and listening very carefully to see if any cicadas made it into the soundscape so i can decide whether or not they exist in thedas/if i want to use them in this fic
#probably i should just pick a different and more common bug#surly antiva has dragonflies#butterflies and bees and etc are out bc i need it to Molt in a nice obvious way#anyway i sure did google ‘dragon age bugs’ and guess how far that got me. sigh. researching with Insect#ramblings#my writing#jades ecological compendium#i mean i can do anything i want of course i just think there’s something to#some sort of ecological consistency. imagine a blight overlapping with a periodic cicada cycle man that’d suck

Superb Dog-day Cicada 》 Neotibicen superbus
Look who was molting at my front door the other night!! What a little cutie.
I was very excited to watch this process up close. The cicadas seem to like our stoop, as evidenced by the number of sheddings I find there.
Watching their wings slowly unfold was so cool! Images 6 and 10 were taken 16 minutes apart.
