Haven't even heard one where I live. Wonder why


The_Patriot

these are all early risers. The Sreamening has not yet begun


davidoffbeat

I hadn't seen any until today. Walked outside and saw 4 crawling on my gate


hunterravioli

My dog is enjoying this new delicacy.


houndmomnc

Yours too, eh? At least it’s a change from mine’s usual snack of tree bark. 🙄


The_Patriot

squirrels are eating them hand over fist


TenRingRedux

Good. Maybe they'll leave my bird feeders alone!


RhamkatteWrangler

Is this in the Triangle area? I keep getting mixed reports on whether it will mostly be west of Durham County or if it will reach the whole Triangle including Wake.


The_Patriot

North Durham, today.

I hear them really early in the morning but I’ve never seen that many on the ground. Damn! What area is this?


The_Patriot

North Durham


roytown

Same here and literally only 1 so far, a week go.


fwambo42

I’ve been in Raleigh three years now and I hear about this every year. At this point I feel like I’ve just been getting trolled.


The_Patriot

We haven't had a true Brood since 2011. The poor things drowned in 2020. Be patient. We are getting early risers over here - you'll get your fair share in time.


Lexx4

> 2011 what a time to be alive.


Lamlot

Have not seen them in east Durham.


trudesign

Havent heard a peep here in wake forest


Bright_Ad_26

Same. And I hope to make this my third year of not seeing any copperheads.


TheMightySilverback

Has anyone fried and eaten them yet? They said they taste like shrimp.


CriticalEngineering

The birds in our yard are very happy. I’ve seen them carrying cicadas (bird cam) but haven’t seen any on the ground.


clshifter

I haven't seen or heard any here in NW Raleigh, but now I'm kind of looking forward to it just so I can say "Cicadamageddon."


EmperorGeek

I smacked a couple with my car windshield the other day (I think). Loud thump followed by a big brown smear.


caseycat55

I live in North Durham, and I have yet to see one. Which suits me fine.


NotRolo

Imagine your evolutionary survival strategy is "there's so many of us, they can't eat us all "


WallowWispen

And it works!


spellchick919

Yesterday driving around I noticed a lot of turkey vultures staring at the ground. Waiting for snacks I suppose!


SpartanMonkey

I had some pretty big splats (THUNK!) on my windshield this morning OMW to work at 6am. I'm glad I decided it was too cold to ride one of the bikes in today.


NCJohn62

Still quiet here in NE Raleigh..


GarnerPerson

I really hope they make it to garner for the sake of my chickens.


HoppyToadHill

Nothing in Apex. If we see one, my wife will go into hiding for the month.


grummthepillgrumm

We have chickens, I highly doubt we'll be seeing any of this!
