The Cicadas Seem To Have Vanished From Texas For Now

Mister Twister pointed me to a very interesting BBC YouTube video this morning, all about Cicadas. I had no idea there were so many of them making all that noise, that currently seems to be silenced for the year. After watching this video I am perplexed as to why I have not seen the remains of at least one of the little beasts.

The most important information I got from this video is when the male Cicadas are making their mating noise do not snap your fingers. Unless you want to have a Cicada try to mate with you.
