My New, Very Loud Neighbor

I may be down one giant spider, but I'm up one giant, extremely loud cicada:

This little guy (gal?) was hanging out in the Live Oak tree in my front yard this past weekend. It's about 4" long.

I'm not sure what kind of cicada it is; I sent the pics with a query to www.whatsthatbug.com, which is a
FANTASTIC website if you haven't been.  Go check it out!

So beautiful.  SO LOUD.
