This cockroach is exploring our insect room (under supervision). Observe how easily he is able to climb over the edge of the table. What adaptations might help with that? Why might such an ability evolve?

(How do we know this is a he?)

Disgustingly huge hissing cockroach. I'm going to go back with a tripod next time and get some better shots.

The rain continues to bucket down in North-East Victoria, Australia! so the macro critters are scarce.

I was working and saw this little cockroach crawling across the carpet. I was going to put it outside but couldn't resist taking a few shots before its release.

I put it on an indoor cyclamen plant and found it very hard to keep up with, boy can these creatures move fast.

I did get a few chances where it stopped for a few moments and was very interested to see it put its head up, not a position you usually see as they most often carry their head down low.

When viewed this way you can see a little bit of resemblance of a mantis.

This one was very light coloured and was around 7mm.

Not exotic, just adding to the record of cockroach exploration.

ゴキブリさんが鍋で溺死していた...　このタイプのゴキブリを宮崎で見たのは初めてです。　宮崎でよく見るのはサツマゴキブリとかちゃばねとかですね。

This is an improvement of the model I folded 8 years ago. The legs and antennas are much longer. The paper is too thick to make the antennas thinner and for adding details to the legs.
