Two More Cicada Pictures

The first guy was pretty cooperative, he sat still and let me take his picture. The other guy, well he kept insisting on crawling up my arm. Oh, Those little legs do tickle.

...they cause car accidents.

I swear! People freak out when they fly into their cars and then they wreck.

But I guess you can't blame the cicadas for that.

But I do. Try driving down the highway at 80 mph and having one of those things jump on you and make that horrible noise........

Not a big fan of cicadas

<snip>

During the last infestation, they caused car accidents by flying in windows or erupting into loud buzzing in the front seats of cars, distracting drivers. They have been known to swarm people out using lawn mowers or weed-whackers, apparently mistaking the motors for lusty mates.
