I live fairly near a jungle.

Let say 10 years ago I always see cicada(green/brown), frogs and big grasshopper(close to the length of my palm).

Early morning after rain there at times there will be bees swarming my lamp post.

But these days I rarely see them maybe none. Feel sad for my kids that they won't be able to enjoy nature as I did.
Maybe we use too much chemicals

1. People let this chicken go for prayer. its like they bring teh bad luck with them
2. the gov pruposely release them. so bascially they are Gov servant

Cicadas and frogs? Yucks.

Cicadas are pretty passive insect. Only thing last time is when they fly inside the house they fly aimlessly and hitting everything in the house.

But when they are outside they just stay on the walls.
