About the cicada...

When you come out of your house in the morning, there's a green cicada just to the left of the door and flies away if you come out of the house instead of the barn. I've been trying to catch it, but with no luck. I've managed to get the ones off the trees without a problem, but that one on my house I can't get. Does anyone know if you can catch it? And if you can, anyone have any tips?

Wait. You can actually catch that Cicada? I've tried it soooo often that i eventually just told myself that it was just there as a tease (pretty much like Alisa is in the recent HMs the poor thing)

Okay. This time that pesky little bugger is going down :x

Walk, don't run. Also, pick up the basket and move it away from that area. Then, once everything is clear, jump up, hit the B button a couple of times real fast, and voila~

Also, if you stand right by the door of your house (stand inside) and double-jump, you can twist your charrie around really quickly to spam B to catch it, and it won't fly away.
Good luck (b^.^)b

Do you know which cicada it is? Is it even worth that much and is it catch-able elsewhere?

And also, this is harvest moon, specifically GrB.
Sexy doesn't exist in GrB.

So all that time I tried to catch it, it was impossible.

The only sexy thing in this game is the noise that old lady that owns the hotel makes.

I can't catch it either.

Maybe I could blow it up...
