This is an information video with only text and a soundfile in high quality of the Snowy Tree Cricket. This little cricket is the most common cricket in the US. In almost all movies, the sound is used as a background sound for a quiet suburban or rural setting at night. So if you are making a movie with night scenes, you can record my sounds from this video if you have a sound recorder. If not then just google "mp3 recorder" or "wav recorder" and find the free software, install and then you can record everything you hear on the computer! Even the sounds from videos on youtube :D

  • house crickets are just like field crickets

    by sound, then theres the small version

    of field crickets.

  • Thats right, and the small versions of field crickets are ground crickets. And they sound different.

  • theres a normal tree cricket too that chirps similar . I think

    theres 4 species of tree crickets

  • There is a cricket named "Riley's Tree Cricket". It does sound similar but slower than this one. But the "Riley's Tree Cricket" only lives in the western states from California to Utah, together with the "Snowy Tree Cricket".

    There are not only 4 species of tree crickets in the US but way more.

  • i am doing a science fair project about them! well not exactly... my question is "what is the effect of temperature on the frequency of cricket chirps?" and i have been having trouble finding if there is really an effect, and i have been buying more ad more crickets but they seem to be chirping randomly. i just learned due to this video, that only the snowy tree cricket is effected by temperature in that way :( i cant tell what kind of cricket i have so if u have any way to help please help me!

  • but the Snowy Tree Cricket is the most correct in chirping rate. This crickets can not be bought in the pet stores. The crickets that you buy in the stores are House Crickets, originately from Europe, somewhere I read that they only chirp on warmer nights (>70 F). The House Cricket is not very correct in chirping rate.

    The changing frequency of cricket chirping is not well documented and I haven't found anything myself.

    Go outside and listen. I can't! Not a single one here in Scandinavia!
