Locust Swarms in AZ

[EE_]

I hope this isn't a bad sign for California food crops
Millions of locusts are marching across the desert right now, heading west toward California.
They are covering my house and yard. I've never seen this here before.

Locust
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Locusts are the swarming phase of certain species of short-horned grasshoppers in the family Acrididae. These are species that can breed rapidly under suitable conditions and subsequently become gregarious and migratory when their populations become dense enough. They form bands as nymphs and swarms as adults. Both the bands and the swarms are nomadic and rapidly strip fields and greatly damage crops. The adults are powerful fliers; they can travel great distances, consuming practically all green material wherever the swarm settles

They look like good chicken food. Cost to feed the chicks would drop with such a visitation.

And grasshoppers are good for grass and good things.
