It's got cool like really autumn these days. I heard insects in autumn singing at night.
It seems very difficult for cicadas to live in this summer because of bad weather and different temperature each time.
I've heard of Meimuna opalifera( tsukutsukuboushi) more often than large brown cicada(aburazemi) near my house.
It's so abnormal. I guess short and rapid summer heat brought differences.
It also says that this article strange in urban area in Japan.

返信削除I didn't often hear cicadas singing this summer.And I didn't see a cast-off skin of a cicada too.
It may be a abnomal weather this summer.
It's on September 1.The second term started and the children in neighbor went to shool this morning.
I took a deep breath though I didn't have a child going to shool.
English class starts the second term this Friday.I forgot English in summer holidays.
I'm looking forward to seeing class mates.
Summer holiday is over and the new fall starts.
削除I'm also looking foreward to seeing the vivid and familiar faces.
I think the same as you. In addition, it seems cicadas are fewer than usual.
返信削除This summer was strange. I'm afraid of abnormal weather.
By the way, I think cicada variety is difficult between eastern and western Japan.
I've rarely heard robust cicada (minminzemi) and evening cicada (higurashi) in urban Toyama.
I remember my childhood in summer with their sounds. I miss them.

Cicadas are said to be waiting for 8 years in the earth until they go up to the ground and live on the earth only for two weeks or so.
削除Their life cycle is very tough when it's cold summer.
I wonder it might have been bad summer 8years ago... And 8 years after might be lack of cicada voice like this year.
At last it became September.
返信削除I feel that passage of time is fast at year by year.
Already, I hear the chirping of insects than the voice of cicadas.
I wonder if there is late summer heat?
It was cool in the early morning but got warm in summer around noon today.
削除So does the weather change so quickly in a day?

I'm sorry I mistook to delete your comment, Emily.
削除I copy and paste from your original comment here.
I'm really impressed that you started full marathon from 62 years old!
I also feel that there was an abnormality a little with cicadas of summer of this year.
返信削除It was late that the cicadas begin to sing than usual in the summer of this year.
Besides, I think number of cicada itself are also a few.
There are many shell of the cicada at trees in the garden during this period, but it is less than usual this year.
I am concerned that the nature has been lost year by year.
By the way, it is September from today, isnt it?
Lessons of us also will begin soon.
Yes, it's time for a new term.
削除Let's get start to brain storming.
