Cicada News
Laural Zindel makes cool insect-print dishes, vases and cups, including a cicada glass.
Roy Troutman sent us this story in the Globe Gazette about increased annual cicada activity in Iowa this year.
As a side note: in New Jersey I only observed 6 Tibicen nymphs this year — last year I observed at least a 100. 2005 was a great year, from my perspective. 2006 was lame — in central New Jersey at least.


Lovely insect photography. Tho it isn’t
my specialty, I did do a cicada post
this week. Our critters are quite handsome.

Sorry — I meant to say our Arizona
mountain critters are quite handsome!
