Cicadas


Absolutely fascinating, Mother Nature literally understands math....

Driving across near the eastern terminus of I-70 (near where I live) the other day, my windshield was a battering ram for quite a few of those bastages.

I have woods about 4 or 5 houses from me, and there were a handful of dead ones on my porch this afternoon.

Not to mention, they're loud as all get out during the day right now. I can hear them in my office with the windows closed.

Went out hoping to fish the Monocacy river last night with my younger son, water level was ok but the water was like the color of chocolate milk and no sign of cicadas. For some reason they aren't around north of Frederick....

I'm going to try and hit the Gunpowder River in the next few weeks which is about 20 minutes north of Bawlmer....glad to hear they are there....
