As I noted in an earlier post, we’ve been keeping our eyes open for Periodical Cicadas that emerged a year late here in the Chicago area. (Our big emergence was last year — 2007.) So far, my family has had no luck.
However, an adult Periodical Cicada was reported on June 8 from Palos Park, southwest of Chicago. The report is on the Cicada Mania website — #32 on this page: http://www.cicadamania.com/message-board/2008-magicicada-periodical-17-year-cicadas/#comments So, we’ll keep looking.
