Cicadas

Where we live we have the sound of buzzing cicadas in our neighborhood. Most of the time we start to hear them around the beginning of July but this summer they started toward the end of June. They make such a loud noise and it seems like the hotter it gets the louder they get. I was sitting on our deck by the fence and suddenly noticed one of their shells hanging right next to me. Of course, I freaked out because I think they are ugly. Anyway, my husband is amazed by them and he picked it off the fence and threw it away. They are very odd creatures and I don't like them.
