I have Common True Katydids down into the woods near the Town Homes but I don't live there and they don't sound like this I believe this is a type of nocturnal bird.

Dude I love thrash! What tone is this?

Why the quotes? It's unequivocally song.

That's southern hat hat hat hat northern makes hat hat------hat hat

I love this sound. I live in SE WI. The woods where I walk my dogs get very loud in late summer. Even after a few frosts in October, there are a few that still hang on. Great bugs!

I live in the New Jersey pinelands. I love to listen to them in the evening. Of course we also have the Pine Barrens Tree Frog which eats Katydids helping to keep the noise down.

I have finally gotten better encounters the past couple summers. They have interesting faces xD.

never heard one before...

A sure fire way to know Spring has come. Love it.

well if that isn't the creepiest video I've ever seen!

...it gets dark

anyone know what insect makes the sound of two marbles tapping against each other?

how do they know when to sing at night

THANK YOU for identifying this beloved Night Sound!!! All of my life I've tried to describe this sound to people so they could identify it; everyone just said, "Crickets." Boo! I KNOW what crickets sound like! As kids, around the fire pit, we'd call them "Quacken Bugs" because we thought they sounded like little ducks. Now, I know. Many thanks! <3

Ah yes. It is interesting how the sounds of animals just trying to have sex brings peace to us. Then again, we are here also here for the same reasons............. I love nature

sounds like cicadas.

Think it's the sound of the cone headed katydid. Whereas the common katydid does the ch-ch-ch and ch-ch-ch-ch sounds, the cone headed katydid does that constant endless sound. Cheers!

i get you!!i love that sound too,brings back memories!!

I think those are crickets, youtube crickets and check it out.

Best sound ever!!! Although this video is so quiet compared to how it is in the south. At night in the summer I go sit outside and listen to this sound and it drowns out the sound of the cars driving by. I can't wait until July! I miss katydids so much.

Does anyone know the name of the insect sound that is in the background of this video? Not the chirping, which I believe is the katydid, but the steady humming that is present throughout the entire clip?

Does anyone know of the insect that makes a very loud clicking noise at night? I saw one once a few summers ago in my yard. It looked like a Katydid. But that's not what it was.

I lot of these near where i live in Mass. I prefer cricket sound though. Katydid call is a little too annoying for my taste.

You should here them in Southwest Virginia, thousands upon thousands making this noise! Love it!

The sound of crickets, cicadas, and katydids is one reason summer is my favorite season. Oh, and the flash of fireflies, too.

@Marixpress2 I couldn't have said it better myself!

@severedtesticles I live in NJ and I also love the sound of the katydids at night!

@severedtesticles Omg!! That's exactly how I feel! Yeah! I miss listening to them at night too! It's soothing!

I grew up in NJ and would fall asleep every night during the summer to the sound of these bugs. Call me wierd but I miss it!

The last song heard is "Pretty Bird, "Pretty Bird".

I'm from NJ and have been trying to figure out what that noise is in my backyard. It seems I have an infestation of them. Extremely annoying, my kids can't sleep at night! Thank God it stops the minute the temperature cools.

@adzmishah that reminds me of an old alphabet insect book that i had when i was little

It sounds like a bird to me

i love to hear kattydids reminds me of summer nights setting in my granny porch swing granny said when they start hollaring it means 90 days until frost this year here in north carolina they started hollaring sooner then they uselly do before the end of june

Cicadas by day katydids, crickets by night <3 summer sounds <3

Wow that is a beautiful sound !! Chilling yet beautiful

it says 'Katydid Katydidn't' maybe

These sounds are one of the reasons I miss NC

Seet! Saw a bunch of these in Ohio this past summer.

loved it!

That is a domestic/canada goose..hence a hybrid. The unfortuante cause of people dumping domestic geese at ponds. He/She sure is beautiful. Have you ever seen him take flight. That will answer the ? on whether it is a hybrid or not. Domestics cant take flight. Poor thing may not be able to migrate with its mate there :(

I went out to have a smoke this evening and there are two massive katydids just chilling on the wall. I rarely see them in Utah, though I suspect they're actually quite common. I've never heard them stridulate until this video so that was great. Thanks for the upload.

1. It's Katydid pronounced Kay-tee did. Not Kathy. 2. Experts. 3. Hear. 4. Thanks.

Great shot!

i grow up in the foothills of north carolina i loved setting in the porch swing at night with my granny and listening to the night sounds i really enjoyed the katydids granny passed away a while back now i enjoy listening to the katydids and all the other night night summer sounds setting on my porch swing with my niece and newfew

Where was this recorded at?

Spring is here! I love these little dudes.

:-)

Lovely white face, great capture.

They're back!
