I am in Prince Edward Island, Canada, on the 13th of OCTOBER,<\/strong> a 2" long plus insect that I think must be a Cicada of some kind, dark brown, reasonably active still this am, was on the door, (attracted by the light that I have beside the door), the weather this fall has been unreasonably ( \ud83d\ude42 ) warm with ~70 degree weather two or three days this week, normally I have Cicadas on the trees and of house only in August, has anyone else seen this or is it a fluke ? I have searched the outside of the house but only the one lonesome charlie.<\/p>\n

I live in Raleigh, NC area, and just spotted my first cicada the night before last which was August 20, 2006.<\/strong> I freaked out when I saw this huge bug on my front porch screen, but after a few seconds realized that it must be a locust or cicada. The markings\/colorings on these insects are incredible. I decided to do a little research to be sure and found this website. So, there you are!<\/p>\n

Arghhhh! That noise! Here I take a week off from work in the middle of August to spend with my children, and every evening, I hear the deafening sound of the cicada!<\/strong> I thought we weren’t due for another emergency for another ten years or so. I live in Athens, Ohio, where the brood hatched in 1999 during my daughter’s outdoor birthday party (what a memory for her\u2026 kids screeming as the fly overhead , getting caught in their hair! What fun!) so we were not expecting the hissing of summer lawns for another decade. What gives?<\/p>\n

I am having trouble identifying this cicada I caught.<\/strong> I was hoping someone could identify it for me? Here are the pictures.

I live in Connecticut and came across a dead cicada last week.<\/strong> Not knowing what it was I took some pictures and posted them in my blog. Falanya from Anchorage clued me in as to what it was. Now I just don’t know what type of cicada it is — just curious.<\/p>\n

BTW, Very nice web site!<\/p>\n

2 cicadas spotted in Columbus, GA. First one spotted on August 1st, the second sighting was August 14 this morning.<\/p>\n

I have spotted a Cicada twice in the last week at my front door.<\/strong> It’s apparently attracted to the yellow bug light I purchased to deter all insects. When I first saw it I was shocked at how big they are! I didn’t know what it was at first until I started researching them this morning. I saw it for the first time last week, but saw it again this morning as I was leaving for work. It was right on my wall under my porch light. It makes such a loud sound! it looks just like the apache cicada that you have pictured on the home page. I thought that their were no species due to surface in 2006?<\/p>\n

Cicadas starting emerging around my yard about June 20th this year.<\/strong> I have seen more than a dozen nymph exoskeletons all over the yard: on the foundation of my house, on the fence, under daylily, squash and bergamot leaves, and even two on the tire of my car. I got photos of two adults and I think they are genus Tibicen. Now yesterday and today, the noise has been intense up in the trees!<\/p>\n

Greetings,<\/p>\n

After an absence of over 50 years, the Giant Cicada (Quesada gigas) is back (with a vengeance) across Central Texas from San Antonio to Austin\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

I just wanted to report that I finally heard my first Tibicen of
\n the season late this afternoon.<\/strong> It was a T.chloromera. I have yet to
\n find any live nymphs or exuviae though. I will update once I find any.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Disney, I work at Disneyland, and our cicadas have just made a very loud apperance.<\/strong> Does anyone know what type they are? The last few days have been the warmest in quite a while\u2026around 80. Thank you!<\/p>\n
