re: The horde has emerged, the Cicadavasion(tm) is in full swing

In north central Alabama we have had the tremendously loud whirring sound going on 8 days now. As they are emerging around almost every tree in the yard and neighborhood, our neighborhood’s dogs have been gobbling them by the hundreds. My dog Zeus easily has eaten 400 total himself on our walks each day. They must be full of protein. He likes them right out of the ground when shiny and juicy and right when they are trying to fly and are very slow to get moving. Fully mature? Not so much.
