King Roti serves up an evening menu of spice curry, spicy snacks and drinks in a very relaxed setting. The decor evokes the feel of an artist's atelier, and there's a soothing soundtrack of recorded cicadas.

Shout out to my favorite #bugs, #cicadas, particularly Brood II. We are 13 years into their 17 year cycle, and with a bit of luck, we'll be around to witness their emergence in 2030 on our property - just as we were here in 2013 to see their parents. Nature's Clock is sublime.
So far, scientists have documented about 45 species of cicadas in Costa Rica. They are loud and impossible to ignore. They're like crickets on steroids, and about 4 or 5 times bigger while using an amplifier!

2026 Cicada Straggler Watch
With no major periodical/Magicicada broods due in to 2026, we will look for "stragglers" from other broods, particularly Brood II stragglers. www.cicadamania.com/cicadas/2026... #cicadas If you had Brood II back in 2013, you'll likely have a handful of Magicicada this spring.

A mostly black cicada with transparent wings clinging to a pillar. A bright yellow stripe runs down the head and body of the cicada.

Cicadas chirp in
Summer's unrelenting throb

*I captured via my iPhone approx 5-10 pics of the hundreds of #Cicadas that emerged on our #MoCoMD property in 2021-22. Not sure why this pic now tops the *Leader Board* of the #AppleGenerated pix on my iPhone desktop 🤷🏽♀️🪲🧐
A photo of the head and forebody of a brown and black cicada from above and the front as it rested on light painted wood. The cicada is a rich brown mottled with black the brown almost reaching orange in a stripe in the center of its thorax.The cicada has large glossy black eyes on each side of its wide face and three transparent reddish small ocelli, primitive eyes, in an inverted triangular arrangement in the center. It's two front legs are held in front of it's body, the next pair out to the sides, and the left most rear leg is just visible held against the body pointing rearward.
It's quiet now, the singers are sleeping, but in a few months we shall have their song again.🙏

Two grasshopper and one dragonfly species from the Wangetti Trail, alongside a very large stick-insect, Acrophylla wuelfingi.
Two beetles from the Wangetti Trail, on the left Ischiopsopha wallacei and on the right Eupoecila australasiae, as well as two spiders, including, on the left, Argiope aetherea.
More wildlife including a closed-litter rainbow-skink (Carlia longipes) with its prey, and an Australian green tree frog (Ranoidea caerulea).

Cartoon. Title: “Best Holiday Wishes From the Cicada Chorus” Image shows Five cicadas playing percussive instruments and clicking their fingers, with the sound “Click click click click click” above their heads. Then there is a sixth cicada playing a honking great brass instrument (because there’s always one). Happy holidays! Hope all you who are having a holiday have a wonderful time, and all you who are on duty, find some joy amidst the chores. To get you in the mood, here’s the sound of summer.

In Japanese culture, #cicadas represent vibrant, but also impermanence.

Yet I refuse to see the reality,
Of what you have become,
A shell of the man I once loved."

Pfft. Wait till the #cicadas kick in. Then report back..
And here is the aforementioned cicada, which is pleasingly known as a Smoky Buzzer. This is the first live cicada I've ever managed to get a photo of.
Cicadas provide the soundtrack of an Australian summer, so it's cool to finally see one in person.

A detailed drawing of a cicada seen from the top on an age-spotted manuscript page. Except for the fact that two of the insect's six legs are sprouting from the insect's head, it is surprisingly accurate. The six jointed legs have fine hairs. The head and thorax are clearly differentiated and the head has round side eyes and two antennae. It has veined wings folded over its thorax. It is drawn in shades of brown and soft red. Image from Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Plut.40.52 (L'Acerba etas), folio 38r.
Our final medieval cicada is remarkable for actually looking like a cicada even to the fine hairs on the legs. It is from an early manuscript of 'L'Acerba etas' by Cecco d'Ascoli (1257-1327). #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #cicada #cicadas
In a dark rectangular frame on a gilt background, a black insect with white spots along its spine and thin hair-like fronds on its underside appears to be hovering/swimming with four flat double-wings/fins extending from its sides. It has a sharply pointed rear and a blunted front with a very cross expression. It looks like a worm with wings/fins. Image from Bibliothèque Municipale de Valenciennes, MS 320 (Liber de natura rerum), folio 144r.
Many medieval cicadas are only vaguely insect-like. This odd little beastie is from a 13th century French version of "Liber de natura rerum". It seems to have the prickles on its underside with which it was thought to absorb its food. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #cicada #cicadas
Looking to the right and sandwiched between sepia-coloured text, a worried-looking green bodied insect appears to be hovering. It has upraised dull green wings and a segmented pointed body. It appears to have four very substantial legs, although it may in fact be eight very thin legs. It also seems to have a strand of greenish hair (perhaps an antenna?) trailing down its face by its eye. It has a blunt nose with a line that looks like a mouth. Image from British Library, Additional MS 11390 (Der Naturen Bloeme), folio 70r.
This little green cicada is from a c1300-1325 version of "Der Naturen Bloeme" by Jacob van Maerlant (c1200-c1272). It seems to have a mouth which may explain its anxious expression as medieval cicadas were said to lack mouths . #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #cicada #cicadas
CINEUROPA 39: #Cicadas es un drama familiar en el que sus protagonistas lidian con sus obligaciones, sus miedos y, sobre todo, con la búsqueda de sus necesidades, hartamente descuidadas en una lucha constante en una sociedad en conflicto permanente...
