Where I live, I've only ever seen one or two at a time, despite the big hype about them in the news. However, several years ago, I visited the mountains of western Pennsylvania during a big infestation of the noise-happy critters. There were so many that it sounded like one of those old alien invasion movies from the 1950s. They sounded like the spaceships... or maybe the spaceships sounded like them. They were so loud that they made talking outside difficult.
First met Brood X, the 17-year periodic cicadas in Washington, DC, and had a spiritual experience (I was very stoned lol) 🤩. But when they arrived again 17 years later, the weather was extraordinarily hot and humid, and the smell of millions of rotting cicadas overwhelmed air conditioners and air filters in homes and supermarkets, and it was SO depressing. 💩
Hi Clara!
Cool box. We don't have cicadas here but I still (like a half century on) have several containers of 'collections' from my childhood
The Internet would be a much healthier place if more videos contained funny apologies for unintentional misstatements of facts.

I’ve always wanted to eat a cicada. Every year, there are always a handful of articles about chefs who cook them.

Oh. I mean, oh.
Please let it be Gwyneth Paltrow's head
You beat me to the Se7en reference. LOL.
So are you collecting them this year, too? Not often you get the overlaps.
I'm impressed you didn't lose them, BTW.
