The Brood X cicadas are starting to emerge after being underground for the last seventeen years. More and more folks in the tristate are starting to see them and, even more noticeably, starting to hear them.
Well, check out these photos! My friend Sonja Simpson Davis happened to be in the right place at the right time Thursday. Her son Wil is home for a visit and was out walking the family dog last night. It was about 10:30. He happened across a cicada right as it was trying to break free from its larva shell. He managed to snap a pic, albeit a blurry one, to show his mom. But Sonja had to see this for herself.
