I think thats really neat.
I'm sure they can get annoying but it obviously doesn't happen every year and thats what makes it special. Too bad thay are not this far south.

You know, I find that VERY interesting. When we moved to our house we noticed that we had these very LARGE Bee like bugs flying around the yard ALL the time. Now, funny enough, they dont sting or bite and are more of a pain than anything. Come to find out by a local pest control man, they are Cicada Killers. They burrow in the ground and find the Cicadas and eat them. At any rate, we dont have a problem with Cicadas here. :wink:
