The cicada killers of Newton

Jim Sullivan reports his Newton office building is infested every July with cicada-killing wasps:

... The first time a visitor to our building encounters them flying around near our entrance, they're likely to get frightened. You can't blame someone for feeling that way. These things are almost big enough to saddle and most wasps would just as soon sting you as look at you. However, here is the thought process of a Cicada Killer:

He flies up to within ten inches of your chest and looks you over.

He says, "Duh... are you a cicada? Doy... guess not! Ooooh, look! I think that's a cicada over there!"

He flies off to look at a big rock. ...

And what would a post like that be without a photo of a dead cicada-killing wasp?
