Had this little idiot buzzing up against my window screen (Northern IL, USA), pretty sure it's a cicada, but I'd like alternative perspectives.

Looks like it could be a straggler cicada since there isn’t expected any major brood cycles.

Offer it “lamp” just to make sure ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

Well there's always cicadas during off years, just not the big brood ones. But it was very buzzy compared to most months. Anyway it's night so it was definitely there for lamp.

Cicadas' eyes are more to the sides of their heads than that.
