Drummer Cicada Hard Enamel Pin

The Double Drummer (Thopha saccata) is Australia’s largest cicada, and one of the loudest insects in the world. If you’ve ever been deafened by an Aussie summer, you can probably thank a cicada. That famous high-pitched chorus is actually a mating call, and in full swing, a Double Drummer can rival the volume of a rock concert.

Fun fact: Only male cicadas sing. The Double Drummer gets its name from the two large, drum-like sacs on either side of its body, which amplify the sound produced by vibrating membranes underneath.

Cicadas have always fascinated us, so we just had to make a pin to celebrate them. Wear it on a jacket, hat, bag or lanyard. A great gift for bug lovers, nature nerds and anyone who loves the sound of an Aussie summer.
