It’s Winter in Australia but I have two cool pieces of Australian Cicada news for you.
First, Australian cicada expert and researcher Lindsay Popple has created a new website about the cicadas of Australia.
Also, he’s been placing cicada songs on SoundCloud as well:
@cicadamania The sounds that will link into my almost completed cicada website have already been uploaded here: https://t.co/yd9bGupveR

Second, Samuel Orr has shared some video of cicadas from Australia and New Zealand on Vimeo. I believe this video will be part of the cicada documentary he is working on.
Update! L. W. Popple said on Twitter that cicada season will start in Australia in 1 or 2 weeks! Australia has 8 month long cicada season!
