Summer chorus


Cicadas sing all day  long here in summer.
They are sap suckers and also tree pruners who damage small branches when they lay there eggs -this damage makes the branches susceptible to snapping in the wind.

They suck sap from plant roots in there nymph stages and then move above ground when they emerge in late spring.

This one is enjoying some corn.
