Jule-Lynne Macie, Rockdale County Extension Coordinator, tries not to make any sudden movements while describing the attributes Monday of the Dog Day Cicada perched on her thumb. Insect Camp members found the insect that had apparently just broken from its shell. Macie explained that the wings were still soft and needed to harden, so the class placed it on a nearby tree where it would mature until it was ready to fly away. Insect Camp finished up Friday.
