Female black meadowhawk (𝘚𝘺𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘮 𝘥𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘦), from the Wiley Trails:
(Edit: Soooo I just realized I posted this picture already last month 
I guess consider this an update because I think I've narrowed down the species now.

dog day cicadas (Neotibicen canicularis) I've seen recently
A cicada hanging from its old exoskeleton. Its colours are delicate and exquisite, and the veins of its wings are almost rainbow-coloured.
A cicada nymph climbing up a tree trunk to molt. It has no wings and is coated with dried dirt.
Looking down at a freshly molted cicada on a pine tree trunk. Its ocelli, the triangle of red jewel-like simple eyes on its head between its principal eyes, are very visible from this angle.
An adult cicada on a pine tree trunk near sunset. Rather dark, green-bronze, with large brown eyes.

Another dragonfly - a migrant hawker, Aeshna mixta? Obligingly perched on the twig of a rose bush just as I was walking past...

Tomato hornworms are basically aliens, also thicker than my finger and I cannot handle it.

Bonkin' Butterflies!
Er, should I have said, Common Blue mating on a Plantain seed head?
On my pristine "lawn".
