Gallery of log for Cicada Shells or larval cases
2020 is a very good year for cicadas.
Perhaps in the great cycle of things in nature they knew they would be required this year to nourish the soil and help seeds germinate, to renew the devastation of our bushfire burnt landscape.
When out in Everton at the Murmungee Basin this weekend the sound of the cicadas was almost deafening.
It is a wonderful sound to hear, to know these little creatures are enjoying years of having been underground, to emerge, help prune some vegetation, find a mate and create a new cycle.
Be grateful when you hear their sound, it is only for a brief time, and is the sound of new life and nourishment to our land.
