Buzzing Back in Time - The Ultimate Cicada Reunion!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Jim Zipp, we witness the extraordinary comeback of JZ-703, a Periodical Cicada who has been patiently biding its time for an astonishing 17 years! As if emerging from a time capsule buried deep within the earth, this remarkable insect takes center stage in Hamden, Cincinnati - ready to party like it's 2004! With their vibrant orange wings and beady red eyes, these buzzing creatures are nature's very own rock stars. And boy, do they know how to make an entrance! Imagine being part of a massive reunion where millions of cicadas gather together after nearly two decades underground. It's like Woodstock for insects! As JZ-703 proudly poses for his close-up, you can almost hear him saying "Seventeen years in the making – and I'm back with a vengeance!". This print captures not just one cicada but also the spirit of resilience and celebration that defines wildlife across North America. So let's raise our imaginary glasses (filled with sap or dewdrops) to honor these incredible critters as they serenade us with their symphony of songs. Whether you find them fascinating or slightly creepy, there is no denying that these seventeen-year wonders have earned their place in nature's hall of fame. Thanks to Ardea Wildlife Pets Environment and photographer Jim Zipp for giving us a glimpse into this enchanting world where even insects become legends!
