Cicada 17 year invasion

[LarryG]

I have lived at my present locatio over 15 yrs. This year the noise is loud and constant. Its not unusual to see six or seven at a time flying around. yes there are locusts every year, but this is the most i have ever seen or heard, and I've got a few yrs on me.

Spent an hour at Raven Run yesterday in Fayette County hiking the SHADED trails. The singing of these bugs was LOUD! It actually gave me a headache and when we left we all had the feeling as if we had been listening to loud music. So if you want to see a bunch of them and hear them this is the place because there are thousands everywhere.
