? sp., body length 10mm
You may not see any insect in this picture. But if you watch it carefully, you should see a  grasshopper in the middle. We took this picture on the water edge of a small pond at Bulimba Creek. This small fellow mimic the wet sand and stone on the creek bank. Its hind legs are with green colour of algae. Its thorax and forewings resemble the rocks. Sometimes it jumps onto the water, it then flow back to the bank.
