You know, I've noticed the crickets seem to be unusually active this year. Even midday, you can hear them singing away like it's twilight out.

Right now, there is a symphony of crickets chirping outside. I've seen a lot of them at the cemetery, but I usually do while mowing or whipping. We've also had tons of earwigs (pincer bugs) this year. I think they are what are eating my mums to death. As soon as they bloom, they get munched.
