The Cicadas are coming 30 trillion plus.

Quote from yesterdays Indianaplois Star

This may the wait is over.
After a 17 year slumber, the cicadas will emerge and let indiana know there back-with a deafening symphony in the trees, a soft crunch on the sidewalk and a splat on the windshield.

It says it will occur once the soil temp reaches 64 degrees and around May 20th. The good news is they only last a month.
 
Ummmm...What are Cicadas???


EWWWWW...just found this on google....yuck.


Cicadas
 
We used to collect the shed skin shells as kids. We liked finding them on the trees and stuff. :)

Actually there are cicada recipes but please don't send me any. I couldn't imagine eating them. (Although I do eat lobster)
 
I remember when the cicadas were here last! My sister worked at The Little Red Schoolhouse ( a nature center) and we got to have lots of fun with them. I even made up a song....

(to the tune of I'm a Little Teapot)
I'm a little cicada
short and stout
here is my mandible
here is my snout
every 17 years I come out
oh I love to hear the people shout!

Kinda dorky, I know, but the little kids on feild trips liked it. :rolleyes:
 
They are set to invade Tennessee this summer to.
 
There are recipes for them and at the Taste of Chicago they have chocalete covered and roasted cicadas. Yummy. Don't it make your mouth water.:scared: :laughing:
