Cicadas!

I will talk more about Phoenix in future blogs. Today I want to talk about her first, of hopefully two encounters with Cicadas. She pointed out the one pictured by staring with concern. She pawed carefully and gently. She licked. The Cicada seemed sluggish but unhappy with its predicament. We photographed. Then the decision was to let Phoenix do what she had to do. I mean really its going to be another 17 years before she gets an opportunity like this one!
