“Bugged by all that noise”
Columnist Gregory J. Rummo has written a delightful article about summertime cicadas and katydids. Read it in the Herald News or on Gregory’s Blog.
Here’s a sample quote:
Of the many sounds of nature I enjoy, one of my favorites is the cacophony of a backyard filled with katydids, those big fat green bugs that start singing around dusk sometime in late summer. Later this month or during the first week of August, depending on the weather, the first ones will begin their annual symphony from the treetops of the more wooded suburbs.
