The Living Force
Some ant species have extensible transparent or semi-transparent abdomens.
This allows them to store liquids such as water and nectar, which are visible through their abdomen.
This is often the case with worker ants, which may have this feature to facilitate the transport of liquids back to the colony.
Quite impressive to observe!
