Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain. ~Henry David Thoreau~
This beautiful necklace was given to me by a server at our favorite restaurant. A few months ago we shared a conversation about Brood X cicadas. She remembered the exchange and held on to this necklace until now. These are the wings of a Cicada. What elicited “eeewwwws” as a child has graced me with joy as an adult. I am so moved by this geature. So honored by this exchange. Thank you, Kim!

I was stunned. These are my favorite insects. I wait for them every year and mark their arrival in my planner. We didn’t get the Brood X, but now I have a way to remember the year.

Insect wings are very elegant. People don’t always realize their beauty because they can’t see beyond the creature.
