Visited Mt Tomah Sun8/10 – hills alive with cicadas – first time ever have seen cicada emerging from shell, drying in the sun. Also saw two 6″ skinks chase down , catch, fight over and devour a masked devil before our very eyes! There were more cicadas in one spot than I have ever seen – and of course the noise was thunderous – but wonderful!
