Cicadas are here and thrumming away! They haven't bothered anything here, at least not yet -- they seem mostly clustered along the creek. I'm less worried about them harming my vegetables and tender plants than I am the plague of grasshoppers in my lower field.... hopefully, the mockingbirds and bluebirds will feast and then invite their friends to the banquet, too.
