  • Doesn't do them justice... the are extremely loud.

  • @TheChromeeagle I know. The video never does anything justice. Nothing beats actually being there. However, these type of cicadas aren't the loudest. There are other species that make different sounds that are much louder than the ones in the video here. Almost deafening.

  • I aM SO glad you let them go until you heard that weeeeeeeeee weeeeeeeeee sound. Thank you!

  • Once, on Sept 23, 1984, I died hearing that sound. NDE. I want to go back.

  • whenever i am outside al of them are hissing with eachother sometimes i feel like i am in hinamizawa and listening to their songs.

  • i love the sound of cicada, the nice hot sumer nights in west virginia wre always the best chasing lit'n bugs and listen to the cicada.

  • Hi, I just looking for a cicada sound video and i got with yours, I liked your The year of the Cicadas video and some others more, & I like you like of smurfs too. Have a nice day.

  • Great noises in this video.

  • I used to pick them up when I was younger and then "launch" them. But for some reason we dont have cicadas in Nassau county anymore.

  • I've noticed there are a lot less of them this time than the last time in 1991. We used to have them all over in the neighborhoods in Miller Place. I drove through my old neighborhood there that same day after I left the pine barrens and I saw NONE of them in the area. It seems as though they are only in wooded area now.

  • I think that may have to do with all the pesticide use.

  • That's really a shame. They aren't harmful, I wish people would understand that and just leave them alone. They waited 17 years to come up for only a few short weeks in the sun. People need to learn to just let them be.

  • Wow... that can almost be deafening! Great capture! Love how you even captured one of the little guys.

  • Thank you for watching. You can actually see more of them in my long The Year of the Cicadas video. :)

  • The birds sound nice too.

  • Enough with the stupid nature videos

  • Umm. You don't have to watch them if you don't want to.

  • Sorry Shane I was in a bad mood that day. I just like some of your other videos little better.

  • the cicada flew at you.

  • thats my kinda neighborhood!!!!

  • We have alot in Minnesota also, very cool sounding andgood to creep out people if you set one on there shoudler :)

  • Buzzzzzzzzzzz !! such a chorus!

  • Are they this loud in real life?

    It's almost like listening them in stereo! I mean that in a good way. I like the sound myself. Insects can really be amazing when you study them. Do you agree with that or not Shane? There's no wrong answers here. Just

    curious. Cool video Shane! Keep them coming!

  • I agree, they are very fascinating. That is why I drove all the way to the Pine Barrens so that I could see them and make this video. It was great fun. Yeah, they are really that loud, they put out some sound. Check out the other Cicadas videos I have, I made a long one talking all about it and have a few more short ones up. :)

  • Are you into entmology Shane? I'm not spelling that right but you know what I mean lol

  • man that would drive me NUTS listening to that all the time,great video anyway Shane

  • This year the Cicadas only seem to be deep in the woods and they are very spotty in a few places. They aren't everywhere. I can't hear them from where I live. So it's all good.

  • I hate That Sound

  • Yh this video is great i gave this 5 stars also!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

  • Thank you for uploading this Shane! :)

    I really do enjoy your videos, you learn something new everyday eh?

    You sure do with your videos. :D
