    I know cicadas very well.
    I am listening to them outside my window right now.
    This was definitely not a cicada.

    Not yet, but I will now.

    Yes.

    Wings were black qnd clear sections separated by what liked like the leading in a stained glass window.
    The body was pewter gray.
    I didn't get a good enough look at the eyes, but no colors stand out to me at all. I think they must have been black or gray.

    But that's saying flies have a single pair of wings, and my creature DID have a single pair of wings.

    No.
    It was shaped much more like a moth than that.

    I looked at some clearwing moth pictures, and there may be something there, but I am not sure.
    It seemed much more substantial than a moth.
    I heard it land on the wooden fence. It was heavy and hard.

    It really did look like a moth made of pewter with stained glass sections for wings.

    Considering there's 120,000 species of flies, this could take a while.
