Notes:

At dawn, the cicadas kick off the day’s performance by flying frantically, grazing the ground while emitting their characteristic and sensational sound, reaching a sound intensity that few animals can achieve. For the listener, it’s the sign of the day rising over the humid and tropical grasslands of Palawan island.
