Cicadas beware
On 08/25/2025 02:13 pm by Randy Strauss | Suburb of Omaha, Nebraska
I was working in my garden when I inadvertently disturbed a female cicada killing wasp with her prey. The wasp dropped the cicada and flew away, then returned, found and buried the cicada in her nest where it will serve as a host for her eggs.
