Members John81 Posted June 14, 2014 Members Share Posted June 14, 2014 Where are the cicadas? A month or so ago I remember a news report saying there would be a lot of cicadas this year. Have they not yet arrived or perhaps they came and went and I missed them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members candlelight Posted June 14, 2014 Members Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) They are a type of locust, John. Â We get them in OH in the summer months. Â Some years, we have a huge swarm of them. Â Below is a wiki article on them with a picture.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicada Edited June 14, 2014 by candlelight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John81 Posted June 14, 2014 Members Share Posted June 14, 2014 I love listening to cicadas. The news report said they were already out but I've not heard any around here. Perhaps it's still too early and the lower than average temperatures may be a factor too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â We get them in July - August when the humidity is high. Â Years ago, when I lived on Lake Erie, we had so many of them. Â I love listening to them, at night, with the windows open and the fan running. Â It is so soothing to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rebecca Posted June 15, 2014 Members Share Posted June 15, 2014 All the cicadas are outside my window at the moment. I like to take pictures of insects and had put a few on my fb page so a friend from church brought an insect book with them on Wednesday night to show me the proper name of a wasp. A cicada flew in through the open door and knocked itself silly on the opposite wall, so I picked it up and brought it outside and they quickly found the cicada page in the insect book to compare it. I didn't have my camera with me, so I didn't get a picture of it.
