While on a water sampling event with HEOP students, we encountered a dog-day cicada (according to iNaturalist) on a tree next to the river. It was still waking up and sitting on the shell of its cocoon. Next to it was another cocoon of the same species, but the other insect must have flown off by the time we got there.
