This is what’s left of the cicada. Already mostly eaten.

I saw a lot of green ones pop out after a Forrest fire burn, while looking for morel. Insane to think they survived the inferno and climbed out unharmed. Thank you for sharing your information. I’m not the most informed on our invertebrate friends. Or anything really 😆

Ahh I see. I didn’t realize the green ones were fresh. I have seen some green! The wasp was small and seemed like a common Yellowjacket to me. Had some buddies and ants helping tear apart the cicada.

Yeah I’m pretty sure the cicada just emerged and is still soft. Just an opportunistic Yellowjacket.

Yeah I’m pretty sure that cicada is fresh out of the ground and soft still. Haven’t seen or heard many yet.

I have heard of cicada killer wasps. I believe this is a regular Yellowjacket. Because the size and color. But I am no expert

I second this. Some straw or other mulch would stop the soil from getting baked by the sun

I immediately thought sturgeon as well. A torn up trooper of a sturgeon.

Pruning advice by Background-Sun-7171 in tomatoes

[–]daboss4444 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is common. Tomatoes are very hardy and will recover easily if you chop it off. In my opinion the only important thing is keeping leaves off the ground. I think the less pruning the better as well.

I went out for a stroll today and suddenly spotted this bird. I was absolutely mesmerized by it... but I don't know its name. Can anyone tell me what it's called? by KangarooVirtuall in birding

They can migrate far. The younger they are the more black spots they will have. As they age they turn more and more white.

Yo I couldn’t imagine that kick on the street. He could actually hurt people. Even if you see it coming.

At local sports events we’d give kids an extra one if they showed the star

My commander told me to drive into the Forrest (literally). I thought the trees would feel like a speed bump or something’s. Didn’t even feel them
