We’ve had a report of a straggler found in Bethesda Maryland.
Details are developing…
If you find a straggler, take a photo. Better yet, take a photo of the cicada next to today’s paper so we can have a record of the date.

It could be crickets, katydids or cicadas, but cicadas are active almost exclusively during the day.
I am visiting my hometown of Bethesda, Maryland from Santa Cruz, California. Is the constant insect hum I hear day and night cicadas? I can’t believe how loud it is! Or just crickets?
Sounds like a Tibicen Chloromera, which actually emerge each year in limited numbers. The orange eye kind are Magicicadas.
Just found one on my porch tonight (Aug 20th, 2009). It was mostly green/blue. Not the orange eye kind we had in 04. I thought it was dead but it flew away when I tried to pick it up to put into a bag.
