Stick Insects

While looking for bamboo shoots too crush (will explain this on another day), I turned over a leaf on the Acanthus to find a giant stick insect that made me jump back and squeal. I called over all the kids and Peter to see the giant insect. We then searched under all the leaves looking for it, only to find two of them sitting on the flower above us. It is brilliant to see them living where they should be, not in a tank.
