The cherry nose, brown baker, redeye, greengrocer, yellow Monday, whisky drinker, double drummer, and black prince are all species of Australian cicada. (Thanks, Wikipedia.)
I usually consider myself a halfway-decent naturalist, but "an annual cicada" is about as far as I can go for this Nebraska specimen photographed by Jessica. Hey, at least I don't call it a locust.
