My soul will make its boast in the Lord;
The humble will hear it and rejoice.
O magnify the Lord with me, And let us exalt His name together.
Psalm 34:2-3
Cactus Dodger Cicada
The Cactus Dodger (Cacama valvata) is a cicada that lives in Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma. It is most often associated with cholla cacti. This particular video is of a male Cactus Dodger clinging to the dead skeleton of a Tree Cholla (Cylindropuntia imbricata), taken on the morning of June 18 in Canon City, Colorado. Its unique song can be described as a high-pitched, "buzz-saw" sound.
