The first Brood XII sighting (sort of)

Filed under: Brood XIII — Dan @ 10:20 am

Rene reported on the message board that she saw Magicicada nymphs in holes in a friend’s garden in SE Elmhurst Illinois.

We’re currently expecting the emergence to start on May 24th, but the hot weekend might have roused the cicadas to an early start. We’ll see.

    I would appreciate your response.

  2. The formula comes from Gene Kritsky. Go to the homepage and look for the link to the formula.
