I don't recond I've ever seen a 17 year cicada-locust-July fly. Every year we do have some 13 year bugs. Most years they ain't so plentiful. Ever once in a while though, they'll be so many you can't hear yourself think.

And then they all stop at the same time and ya get a short break.

These cicadas are the thirteen year variety. We still have several summer broods of different types of cicadas.

Beware the zombie cicadas!

 

[trad bow]

The seasonal cicadas are what we always call July flies. There’s a hatch every year. The thirteen year cicadas which I think we are experiencing now, we’ve always called cicadas.

Just went and got pizza to go for everyone from Jimmy B's Pizza. Really good!

Sea breeze feels good and it's 85*. Liam just went down for a nap then I'm told we will hit the ice cream truck at the beach later on.

Milo guards Liam like a hawk.
