The 17 year CICADAS!!!

If you know about Cicadas, than you know that they are here. It's been 17 years and they are back. I remember them from the 70's, but I missed them when they returned in the 90's.

Their sound is so cool. They look neat with their shiny wings and red eyes. Not many fans around here for them, but we went and visited the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL the past week and saw them!!! How cool, there were millions of them. You couldn't even walk in the grass without crushing hundreds of them.



Here are some really cool pictures of them. If you have a moment, visit the YouTube link and check out the video - it's really cool!!


Talk to you later!
