The Summer Olympics come every four years. The cicadas come every 17 years. That makes them the Olympics TO THE EXTREME. Here are some cicada postcards for you to collect:

The cicada high jump

The cicada 100 meter sprint

The cicada 800 meter swimming race
You can even print out this cicada and color it. Check out Color a Magicicada over at cicadamania.com.

And YES, the cicada SHOULD be upside-down in the high jump, but that just looked crazy.
VERY funny!
I haven’t seen or heard any cicadas yet. Has anyone seen them or are they still brewing beneath the earth?
