Not so many around me this year. It means humitity when they come out. I have the ones with the tuxedo (black with white trim). One landed on my shirt last week. It was like "ZZZT BAM" and I was face to face with it. lol I went to grab it, hoping it wouldn't pee on me when it took off. But it took off with no pee before I could catch it. In the south they are HUGE and green. Way too LOUD!!!
