Stick Insect's bug eyes A stick insect looking like a real stick, camouflaging on a mossy tree trunk. Most people and animals would easily walk pass without noticing it. This winged female is quite large, tip to tip about 200mm! 1stopborneo,Borneo,Geotagged,Malaysia,Winter,camouflage,mimicry,phasmid,wildlife Click/tap to enlarge Promoted
