Cicada Season


July 29, 2019.  On my walk this morning, found this cicada just lying on the sidewalk.  I purposely stuck the tip of my tennis shoe in the photo to show how big they can get.  This one is probably fairly small compared with others. They sure are noisy. I took a recording of the sound just at the bottom of our apartment.  Good thing I use ear plugs when I sleep.
