I’d not experienced the cicadas incessant sounds until I came out here for a visit. The trees are filled with the red eyed insects. It’s been 17 years since they’ve emerged. Here an article about this species, not to be confused with the annual cicadas.

Listen to Cicadas in Columbus Ohio a short video -you can hear them and see them flying around
(Or maybe you’re experiencing them yourself where you live and don’t need to listen)



They are everywhere.
They are so loud!
It looks like an infestation.
You are exactly right!
Wow, I’ve never seen them before ,
They are everywhere this year; not sure why?
