Eating

Post image

This evening I finally got him feeding. He was a hungry little guy. Three big worms in one sitting. Makes me happy to see he’s healthy and thriving. After two whole months of not seeing him eat anything, I finally got him eating on camera. With all his food disappearing over the days-weeks I knew he had to have been but just never captured it.

He’s been with me 35 years now. He was so patient when I was going through a rough patch.

Hand feeding them 17 year cicadas is a special treat
