May 21, 2026

I am known as a Rehn's Cockroach
I'm sure you are sitting there saying "ewww"
But take a close look at my wings and legs - 
They're translucent, you can see right through!

(I thought this was kind of silvery when I first took the photo, but eventually realized you can see through it. Very cool.)

Location: On the side (outside) of my house, Fellsmere
