mmm the sound of summer. there arent too many here by the water.. half a mile inland though thats all you hear. probably my favorite noise as a child. it signaled the end of school. it's a bit cool for them to be buzzing today. (atleast here) usually only here them on 80plus days.
it's surprising with as loud as they are how impossible it is to see one. heard them every day of the summer my whole life and had never seen one till i was 21. it got blown into my window during a tropical storm. ugly things. i thought it might have come up from florida in the storm and finally got blown out onto my window. gigantic brightly colored bug. didnt know what it was till i looked it up.
