They're huge!
There's an interesting pattern on their back, kind of decorative.

Have I ever! Three years ago I had an open canned beverage in the garden, left it briefly, and came back for refreshment. I suddenly had a mouthful of...something. Spat it out, and it was a 3" long cicada killer. It was barely alive, and succumbed shortly. I brought it in, and put it on the shelf over my desk. Two months later, I had the very same experience. They sat together on the shelf, stingers (daggers) extended, til just recently.
I learned three lessons: 1. No more open beverages in the garden. 2. Cicada killers like beer. 3. I'm glad I'm not a cicada.
