Carol W. took this wonderful photo of a Tibicen (it is a Tibicen linnei) in Lexington KY on the 4th of July (took me 81 days to post it).

    This is definately T. linnei. You can see the extreme curvature on the forward edge of the front
    forewing which is a noted key to the species. Difficult to tell sex though. I think I detect a clasper which would make it a male.
