Cicada Invasion 202X Unprecedented 200 Years
Показать описание
They’re appearing almost like clockwork, blanketing backyards, parks and towns in a historic emergence that hasn’t occurred in more than 200 years.
It’s cicada season, and this year is sure to be a doozy.
Naturalists have already spotted the first arrivals in a rare phenomenon during which cicadas will emerge this spring across more than a dozen US states — including populous areas like Chicago, Nashville and St. Louis — covering eastern parts of the country with billions, perhaps trillions, of the flying bugs.
The insects will infiltrate a much bigger geographical area than similar occurrences because they’re part of the dual emergence of two particular periodical cicada broods. The simultaneous appearance of these two broods hasn’t happened since 1803.
