Cicadas








The air is full of Cicada's song. In New Zealand Cicada's live underground for 2 to 5 yeas. When it gets warmer the cicada's start singing to attract female cicadas to mate with them. Maoris call cicadas kihkihi wawa. When cicadas come out from underground, they crawl up and live on trees. Cicadas are normally eaten by birds or caught in spiders webs. Cicadas suck the sap from plants and trees. They only live for the summer and when autumn comes they are all dead. by Jasmyn Paine.
