This "twig" was stuck to the side of the house last night. I thought it was an odd place for a stick to be, and it seemed really semetrical, so I ran in the house to get Will. After gently blowing on the twig, it moved!
A search on Wikipedia revealed that walking sticks live all over the world and are masters of disguise. Some grow to be 12 inches long! Our little friend was probably about four inches long.
I had never seen a walking stick except on TV, so it was very cool to see one in person. I feel fortunate this one spent some time in the side of our house.
