Did you know squirrels eat cicadas?
I went along on my son's field trip a few years ago, to a State Park. They had a half grown squirrel in a cage. . .raising it because it lost its mom. It was a year that cicadas were hatching. The humming sound was horrendous during the day and the Park Ranger told us campers were leaving because the nights were so noisy with the cicadas humming. Anyway, she showed us how the squirrel loved cicadas by putting one in the cage with him. He caught it and you could have heard it crunch a mile away.
