Cicada Killers in Gainesville, GA

I just went outside around 4, and took a picture of the cicada killer also and her habitat. We have had them for years out in our yard. It was pretty horrifying to watch the killer take down a cicada and then drag it up our retaining wall to disappear between the cracks. I just learned that they are in fact referred to as the "gentle giants", but I am still a die hard fan of the cicada. I am in North Georgia, we have loads of cicadas here and the killers here.
