Baby Ant?
This is a nymph of Stick Insect, Phasmid of the species Orthomeria pandora, probably newly hatched or few days old.
Mentioned it could be newly hatched as it was seen during day time, quite low near the ground and it was actively moving, and when they are moving, they curled up the end of the abdomen making them looking like an ant, sort of a mimicry to prevent getting eaten.
