What a very unusual creature – it looks quite big too given your last clever shot with your lens cap in it. Great macro shots.

I don’t have any clue on what this insect could be, but I sure hope it’s not dangerous. The white powdery and hairy stuff looks scary though…

It seems to be a cicada, a bug that emits a sound, they are noisemakers, and usually benign to humans. There’re a lot of differents cicadas…great macro!

It looks like some kind of a moth but I’m not exactly sure which. Is that powder on its head? You did a very nice shot of the bug, though.
