People think it’s police sirens when it’s cicada mating calls.
Some people in South Carolina are calling the cops on cicadas

People are nuts. They're magnificent creatures.

Well at least they're not shooting at them or starting fires..yet.

A few people must have deep-fried them by now.

How can they not know what they are? I’ve never heard them anywhere else but South. Only thing I miss about Texas.

I wouldn't be surprised at all, r3. Back in 2005 or 2006 during a big mating season, there was at least one site about their preparation for consumption, freezing instructions, and various recipes. I will not search or post. Just writing that makes me a little nauseous. The description I recall is that they're essentially land shrimp.

I have never seen one before last year. I kept finding turd looking exoskeletons. Finally spotted a big green... something and googled 'frogs that look like they have wings' and discovered the cicada. They're simultaneously pretty and super creepy. They're so meaty looking
