After coming inside and informing my husband of the giant bug we went back out with the camera to take some photos.
If you know what kind of bug this is you'll understand why I now feel a little silly. It's a cicada. I had never seen one before - even though we hear them all summer long in Louisiana. I have seen them before they molt, and I guess that's what I thought they always looked like.
Thank you giant ass bug and Wikipedia for teaching me something new today.

Blinking heck! I'm feeling rather thankful we don't get bugs that big in the UK!
Cicadas are freaky. They were all around the pool area of the hotel we stayed at last in Palm Springs. Get away from me, bugs!
Issabella - based on that comment I'm considering moving to the UK. lol.
Brad - BUGS!
