Periodical Cicadas
« on: November 26, 2007, 12:06:25 PM »

Periodical Cicadas are due to emerge this coming spring in SW Ohio. So, I thought I'd put some info up on them.

Oh and I loved collecting the exoskeletons when I was little :) it's a favorite pastime!

yeah, should be coming your way this spring, but, prolly won't be a huge amount this time. i think 2016 & 2021 are the next BIG cicada events, but for anyone in a good position to look for them (and the willingness to eat them) should do alright.

i don't remember a song, but i do remember people freaking out  :)
