I made a friend this morning

I found him


Drowning here


I had to scramble down a steep embankment and held on to a tree branch and just got him before he floated down river.
His wings look like glass


Excuse the dirty hand (from previously mentioned scrambling)


I left him here. I think he'll live to sing again

@robingoodfellow 🤔you user name rather sums up your act of selfless kindness .gives you hope in our fellow man that you are prepared to risk all for another creature🤗
@smiler2012 all I risked was getting wet and muddy

Not very many people would go out of their way to save the life of a cicada, or any insect. 💜

He seems to be recovering just fine...to sing again.

Excellent. They`re singing their hearts out here.
@Degbeme here too

There should be millions around. Especially this year. Yet good of you anyway.
@DeWayfarer millions yes. But only one him 🫠

@tobynshorty it’s a cicada aka summer sound track

@tobynshorty it's a cicada. Every so many years 27 billion of them come out of the ground at once, live for a season to mate and lay eggs, and then die.
@tobynshorty you can hear them singing on the video
Is that a cicada ? One doesn’t see them out here.
@robingoodfellow They exist in some parts of California, but not quite the same types as other states. And they don’t appear (so far) in the Bay Area. When my friend first lived in Sacramento County she saw (and heard) them. 😄
@bijouxbroussard I would miss them if I lived somewhere they're not. Like fireflies, I look forward to their time of year.
@robingoodfellow Fireflies are another thing we don’t see here. I first saw them while visiting my grandparents in Louisiana as a child. We kids ran among them on the front lawn at dusk. I was enchanted by them.

Run a power drill and he'll have sex with you
