I've been seeing several of the 17-year (I guess) variety lying

Must be a continuous gourmet dinner for robins and other insect-eating
birds.
Then the 14-year variety are due in June and the "regular" annual ones

I'm not sure we get cicadas around here. I haven't actually heard a lot

out of those creatures!
