If you dig cicada nymphs up in your garden, take note of whether they have black patches or not, record the date, and then record the date of the big emergence nights.
Question: We know that periodical cicadas eyes turn red up to a year before emergence, their holes can appear up to a month before emergence. But when do the black patches on the thorax form? #magicicada #cicadas #citizenscience @cicadamania

And please photograph dug-up nymphs and later adults newly emerged from the same ground and report to iNaturalist or CicadaSafari
