My Cicada
July 3rd, 2009I got this little creature off a tree in my yard a few years ago and boy do I miss them. It was about 5 years ago (2004) when we were last attacked and I have to tell you I liked it. I think they are so cool, the Cicada's awaken every 17 years and cause havic everywhere. I remember my daughter was playing softball that year and cicadas where everywhere on the field flying by the hundreds from first base to third base and then home plate. Even at practice the girls where picking them out of their hair. Ewww, gross, the girls screamed, no I say ewww cool! How cool is it that every 17 years a monster looking insect by the millions awakes to cause havic all over. I can't wait for 2021 Cicadas to arrive.
I wonder if I could sell this Cicada on eBay??? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.
