Insect or Fowl ?



The other evening I was sitting on the back deck and I happen to see this thing hovering around some flowers we have. At first I thought it was a little humming bird because of the way it was kind of still in mid air except its wings which were going so fast you couldn't really see them. When I got the camera however and got a closer look, I could see that this thing didn't look like any hummingbird. It looks like some kind of insect or something. Some one said it looks like a cicada but I'm not sure, I've never seen a cicada like this. Does anyone have any idea? Whatever it is it's pretty interesting.
