Which means there are enough of them now to make a collective noise. Not good.
Oh, sure - I'd like to bounce around my neighborhood screaming "I need to get laid!", but do you see me disturbing my neighbors at jackhammer-loud levels? Nooooooo.
I read of the cicado sound was of a cinematic 1950s spaceship preparing to land. Which is exactly what they sounds like.
Right now the cicadas in my neighborhood are being drowned out by the gleeful chirps of all the birds who are very excited about the big, tasty appetizers coming out of the ground. Cicadas are like chicken nuggests for the animal world.
Every person walking their dog past my apartment has complained about their pets' prediliction for insect flesh, not to mention all the cats who love to stalk and "play with" anything that flies. Hell, walking across campus to work I saw a squirrel run by with one in his mouth.
