User's notes

There were two ambertails on the shed wall in the morning. I went inside to get a camera but by the time that I returned one had already left, or been eaten by a bird, while the other was crawling up the shed’s wooden side. The cicada’s right wing seemed to stick out an angle, different to how the left wing was. The cicada did not fly off while I was watching, it just climbed higher until it was on top of a bit of overhanging material and out of my sight. (Sorry, this is from last year, I am catching up with some photos I have.)
