    It looks like a recently emerged cicada. Those things are so noisy when they are at one of their peak years.

      Actually, this is a female. Only the males make noise.

      In the years the long-cycle ones come out, they're so numerous and clumsy they'll fly right into you 😂

      I need to add seeing them emerge to my bucket list. We don’t get them in CA. Guess I have to wait another 13 or 17 years! What an amazing life cycle.

      California has 73 cicada species, just none of the periodicals. That means you get plenty on shorter emergence cycles that are more like 1 or 4 years. If you're more coastal, look for the van duzee's cicada. If you're more inland, try looking for the mountain cicada :)

      And if you ever travel to see the big periodical emergence, look up the broods in advance (they pop up in different states each year, so you don't have to wait the full 17) and look for them under oak trees (they use many trees, but seem to favor oak.) Also have fun trying to spot the three 17 year species and the four 13 year species (i found two 17's with the last emergence)

      Thank you for letting me know. Where can I find more info on where I could see them? I thought they were only an east coast “bug”! I have to go looking for them. Guess I’ll take care of my plants later. 😝
