I generally include a picture with my blog posts but I find cicadas and locusts kinda gross so I’ll spare you.
I guess I could have put a picture of a morning up but my guess is you know what a morning looks like… or maybe you don’t. A lot of people are not “morning people”. I’ve been a morning person for a long time.
But that’s not why I called.
I called to talk about how the sound of cicadas is drowning out the birds this morning.
Usually at 6 am the only sounds I hear from outside are birds chirping but this morning it’s all about the cicadas. Strange phenomena.
I believe it’s a combo of a bigger cicada population this year along with extreme heat.
In any case, it’s weird to hear them so early in the morning.
I read an article that said the cicadas wouldn’t be around much past July 4th and that’s fine with me bc the song they sing is not my favorite. I wouldn’t even call it a song really. Idk what it is. Like a rattlesnake on steroids.
Happy Summer of the Cicadas.
