Rep Power: 50 | Wow! What a find. Illinois Boy Discovers Blue-Eyed Cicada By Associated Press document.write(getElapsed("20070610T0647 51Z"));Sun Jun 10, 2:47 AMUPDATED 15 HOURS 44 MINUTES AGO DOWNERS GROVE, Ill. - It was a one-in-a-million find. Literally. Most of the 17-year cicadas that have emerged in recent weeks in parts of the Midwest have red eyes. But a 6-year-old boy in this Chicago suburb found a rare blue-eyed one in his backyard Friday. Nicholas Wagner's mother, Maria, said her son learned about the blue-eyed bugs in kindergarten, so he decided to go out and hunt for one himself. "`Mommy, I found a blue-eyed cicada!'" he yelled upon the discovery, his mother recalled. "He's been looking for a long time." While the boy's find was rare, it's not unheard of. The blue eyes are caused by a genetic variation, said Gene Kritsky, author of "Periodical Cicadas: The Plague and the Puzzle." Blue-eyed cicadas are indeed one in a million, Kritsky confirmed. "Of course," he added, "there are hundreds of millions of cicadas."
