Here in Middle Georgia you cant miss the sound of the Cicada's LOUD buzzing in the surrounding trees! I happen to love the sound but there are a lot of people who have really been complaining and are trying to get rid of them by using insect spray....LOL!!! Not going to happen folks!
It took this particular years Cicadas 13 years to mature under ground . So 13 years ago must have been a really good season for the mating game! I do not remember the trees being this full ever!
Here is some really bad photos of the casings left behind once they morphed from baby pupae into grown cicada.
