Happy Tuesday with Rocky

 




Dearest Auntie HiC
 I saw the strangest looking creature crawling on the gazebo. 

Naturally, I  was  very curious and tried to get a closer look.




Apparently, I wasn’t the only curious one. Next thing I knew, we were face to face!🙀


Mom said it’s a Phasmida, stick-bug, and there are more than 3,000 species of walking sticks all over the world.
Do you see it!?!🙀



It was certainly a close encounter of the sticky kind. Ha! 

No stick-bug or kitten was harmed in the process of making this video!😻

Sound on, please:


❤️ Rocky, Your Ginger Nephew 


Ohhhhhhhhh dear nephew...I can see it and OMCs what a visitor to have.  He has excellent taste to want to be up close to you and be your friend!  Now honestly I hope and purrr he does not bring all his relatives to meet you...that could be a really ‘sticky’ situation. Mol mol that was a little auntie humor.
Uncle and I watched your action video at breakfast. We love the music
and your moves!!
With love and many thanks for these wonder photos.
Your devoted Auntie HiC

  4. He must have really wanted to meet you, Rocky. I have met a praying mantis before but never a walking stick!

  5. I love stick-bugs. Haven't seen any here in Florida but we had them in the fall in Missouri. What a special find Rocky. I am glad you met a stick-bug!

  13. Wow, that dude's really skinny! I think I might've tried to play fetch with him, since that's what sticks are for, so it's probably better you met him instead of me.

  23. Hi Rocky. Mom says she remembers sitting in a sand box as a child, up in Pencil Vania, and grabbing a stick bug, thinking it was a stick. Kinda freaked her out, as you can tell since she remembers it from about 87 years ago, BOL. I would probably check out what it tastes like. XOX Xena

  24. We had one of those in the house oh so long ago Rocky. He never told us how he got in and Dad took him back outside. Thanks for the fun dood

  25. We haven't seen one of those stick guys in ages but I find them totally fascinating when I DO see one. They kind of jerk along when they walk sometimes and have one of the best "DISGUISES" of any critter I know!

    Hugs, Teddy
