Field Notes
Description:
a type of walking stick, about 5", see third photo for scale
Habitat:
tropical rainforest
Notes:
I spotted this in Rio Claro reserve. I was hiking the only trail along the river that led deeper into the reserve. It was very rugged with a lot of sharp limestone and didn't have as much diversity or the numbers of insects I've seen in other tropical rain forests but this stick bug was really cool to spot. It was on a shrub just off the trail, which was very thin. I nearly walked past it, but it caught my eye and he was busted! It didn't really try to get away and was pretty relaxed.
