This is the solar term allocated to five days starting today, meaning “cry of evening cicadas”. Although this is a kind of cicada, its cries sound a little sad. When we get to hear it in the evening, I feel somewhat relieved, thinking that this long summer will finally come to an end soon. I guess that is the reason it has that name, evening cicada.

今日から5日間の七十二候です。ヒグラシはセミとは言え、少し物悲しいような鳴き声が夕方に聞こえてくるとちょっとほっとします。それでevening cicadaという名もあるようです。
