    I live in Virginia and last summer I was lucky enough to be right in the middle of a massive 17 year cicada hatching. Several of the trees in our yard became chorus trees. Millions of these insects would sing in unison, coordinating their volume becoming louder and then softer at the same time. I’ve never heard anything like it. The whole forest was vibrating and breathing

    • @Snowystardust12
      @Snowystardust12 2 года назад +5

      It’s quite magical how they raise and lower the intensity in unison, like a great big breathing or heart beat process. It reminds me of the flight of some flocks of birds, how the group comes close together, then expands out, back and forth in a rhythm.

    The sound of cicadas reminds me of summer nights in my childhood. When they leave their exoskeleton behind, you can hook the front claws on your clothes and sport it as a decoration.

  • @bobjacobson858
    @bobjacobson858 4 года назад +12

    Nice video, but there are a few things I need to point out:
    1) Adult cicadas DO feed--they use their "beak" to pierce twigs and suck juices from the tree. They are xylem feeders (as opposed to phloem feeders, typical of most other insects).
    2) The ridges underneath the abdomen are NOT the tymbals--the latter are located under the two "flaps" seen at the base of the abdomen, and their "songs" come from these. The ridges on the abdomen are simply sutures between the abdominal segments; however, some species flex their abdomens while singing, especially those whose songs pulsate. This species is Megacicada dealbatus, which is found through much of the Great Plains region and along the eastern edges of the Rocky Mountains, and its song is like "hdee, hdee, hdee..." with about two to four "hdees" per second. There are other videos on RUclips in which this call can be heard, such as these all provided by the same person:
    ruclips.net/video/KsBkhSpP5uk/видео.html
    ruclips.net/video/ZJOBLaucGxc/видео.html
    ruclips.net/video/SjXk4ewNA-A/видео.html
    ruclips.net/video/soDefPHa1w0/видео.html
    3) Although cicadas are harmless, if one is hungry and sitting on your finger, it may "decide" that your finger is a twig, and start poking with its beak. However, they aren't venomous, but I've never allowed one to continue doing this. (One time even a large aphid from a willow tree started doing this!) As one cicada specialist once told me, cicadas have the intelligence of a "box of rocks".
    4) There is a species that occurs farther eastward (primarily in tallgrass areas and around the Mississippi River) named Megatibicen pronotalis, and it has a rather similar song; here are some examples (some having been recorded by the same person as those listed above):

    Thank you for all the great info on this insect. I always wondered about the bug that made this noise.
    As a kid I hear masses of them in the trees and pictured Dining Needles (dragonflys) to be making the noise. Thinking they were making the noise and were about to swarm by the dozens to attack/sting me.
    I was 6. What did I know. But I hate dragonflies. Now knowing what a short harmless life the circada have I am not afraid of them or the noise they make anymore.
    So cute that you tickled circada bug to make the sound. Lol.
