Cicadas of Kruger

A video & photo I took in Kruger: turn sound up! According to SANParks, cicadas are known to entirely disappear for many years, only to reappear in force at intervals. Listen to the cicadas here – (audio supplied – video for illustration purposes only): “Their abundance can be triggered by the temperature, humidity and rainfall the area receives at certain periods. #travelwithus #cicadas #krugernationalpark
