It's quite different than the one I wrote my haiku about as a facebook comment to this post. I think it's a scissor-grinder cicada... at least, the one I heard just now definitely was! :) Cicada songs are neat. :) http://www.musicofnature.com/songsofinsects/iframes/cicadas/cicadas.html I think I heard a wee-ur today!

visiting city friends often claim that
it’s so noisy here. it’s the cicadas that
get to them. in my opinion, car horns, trains,
overhead airplanes and sirens, all 24/7
are much noisier. those of us who live
with their rhythmic “whee-ur” dont even notice it.

pulsating chatter

summer’s constant lullaby

cicada night-song.
