[QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;30256536]Which part of Florida? I've been vacationing with my parents to Siesta Key for 16 years or so, and I've heard them a bunch down there.[/QUOTE] Ft. Lauderdale / Plantation / Hollywood area. The rednecks stay in Plantation. The old people stay in Hollywood. I am in Ft. Lauderdale.
When I was like eleven or ten my sister and I caught some of these interesting little buggers and put them in a little cage used for butterflies. And at when they were in the cage they started making these weird whispering sounds.
I think it was one of those fuckers that flew in the other night as I was letting my cat out.
[QUOTE=Wickette;30246400]These things are in giant swarms in the St. Louis area. I don't mind their sounds in the summer, it's quite relaxing but they are just creepy and disgusting to look at. They're flying around in swarms.[/QUOTE] You're from St. Louis?
[QUOTE=Squall;30259140]You're from St. Louis?[/QUOTE] Yes sir! That I am.
Most annoying bastards ever....
:suicide:
I heard if you rip off all of their legs, their heads pop off.
Some of them sound like miniature little sirens. If there's not too many of them, you get used to it pretty quickly. It's funny when it's that moment around sunset where they all shut up and go to sleep. Suddenly it's so eerily quiet.
Used to live in Japan, Cicadas every damn summer. They are cool, but not when they decide to die in pools and other places were you don't want them :v:
Cicadas suck so much at flying, I caught one taking off from ground level.
i think these fuckers make these noises at night where i live, always have to sneak out super fast as to not have this fucking sound fill my god damn house and wake everyone up
