A quick break in the Brood XIII action:
A website about Japanese cicadas (Semi). More websites about Japanese cicada. It’s interesting to see all the different varieties of cicadas that exist around the world.
Many, many photos of Japanese cicadas thanks to Google photo search.
Back issues of the American Entomologist are now freely downloadable.
I love how the one cicada’s song can be used in manga to indicate that it’s really hot and humid out.
The video clips of the Japanese cicadas were really cool as well. The songs are so different, and some of them have such interesting patterns on their wings.
