Are there cicadas in early autumn?

There are cicadas singing in early autumn. After beginning of autumn, the number of golden cicadas was very small, and the cries of golden cicadas could be heard occasionally, so fewer people caught golden cicadas. Cicada, an insect, has a lot to do with temperature. It reached its climax in midsummer and gradually died out as the temperature dropped. Therefore, with the temperature drop after beginning of autumn, it makes sense that cicadas are chirping less and less.

The most important task of cicada is reproduction, and the most important thing of courtship is singing. Cicadas don't use their mouths, but the male cicada has a special vocal organ in his abdomen, which vibrates the eardrum to make a loud sound, and the sound can reach one kilometer away. This female cicada can't sing When she heard the "call" of the male cicada, she immediately flew to meet and complete the mating. Then the male cicada died quietly, and the female cicada died after laying eggs.
