At the beginning of each summer in Marseille its little rituals.

Jul releases a new album and the cicadas come out of the ground to sing.

And to map their appearance in Provence, a Marseillais has created a small website which makes it possible to identify and locate them.

Each Internet user is invited to fill in an address with the date of the first (and timid) tss tss tss.

#Cigale#CarteCollaborative


For the song of the cicadas team: a collaborative map to indicate the 1st songs of the year.


Don't be too specific about the address, otherwise we'll come and party at your house!https://t.co/qnwgA9WP7q pic.twitter.com/8X2hU5LGOv
