SUMMARY:Singing Leaves: The Stories and Songs of Night Singing Insects
DESCRIPTION:Topic Singing Leaves: The Stories and Songs of Night Singing Insects \nDate Feb 2\, 2027 \nTime 10:30am \nLocation Acton Town Hall and zoom \nSpeaker John Himmelman\, author\, illustrator\, and naturalist \nSummary On warm summer evenings\, night-singing insects (crickets and katydids) produce a whirring\, chirping soundscape— a calming aural tapestry celebrated by poets and naturalists for millennia. Who are those songsters\, so hard to find amongst the leaves and twigs they’ve evolved to resemble? And why are they singing? Himmelman introduces you to the individuals you’ve all likely heard\, but have never seen\, through his photographs and recordings of their calls in New England. \n
