When I open the window on the veranda, the hot spring area is filled with the sound of cicadas.
Some say cicada cries and some sing, so it's up to both of you to think.

Cicadas live in the ground for 7 to 17 years, and then come out as adults.

Cicadas can only cry males and females cry, and 3 days after they molt and they can cry loudly from the 4th day onwards.

So fiercely high-pitched

This bloody, high-pitched sound is purely to find a mate.

It's a male serenade calling for a mate.

When one cicada cries, the other cicadas cry out loud at the same time, which is a kind of competition between males!

The reason that their cicadas only live for two weeks is that they eventually find a mate, which is the best way to preserve the species.

As long as they live as larvae in the ground for up to 14 years, they are eaten by all kinds of natural enemies, and only a few lucky ones survived.

The labor period to lay the eggs is short, and the calling to find a mate is the same!

When the male and female mate, the female lays eggs in the branches of the tree, and after laying the eggs, the mother cicada falls to the ground and ends her life.

At this time, the male cicadas also end their life.
While they live two weeks on wings as cicadas, preserving the species is their top priority and they spend two weeks on it.
Now that I know the life of a cicada what can you also tell us about cicadas.?
