Day 90 - July 25, 2011 - There are Back...Sort of

The Cicadas visited us back in May...stayed

for weeks and they let you know they

were around with the loud noises they

made.....I mean LOUD!

There thousands upon thousands of

them. That batch were known

as the Periodic Cicadas.

Coming out every 13 to 17 years.

But now we have been visited by the Annual Cicadas.

Not many have appeared but these bad boys

come once a year.

They are fatter, don't have the orange eyes and the wings

appear to be longer. But after weeks of the

noise we put up with, I was surprised when I heard

these guys. I thought maybe they were really

late bloomers! The internet helped with my

learning about the differences.

Thanks for stopping in,
