Oh my, it's my insect cousin. Phasmids are much like these guys only they don't pose as well, and if they do, you can't see them. Great macro work, my friend. Excellent shot!! :)

"...here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)"
He is so busted sneaking back home at that time of night,, hence him staying so still. He was trying to be invisible :)) What a fantastic macro, I love it. Well done!
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
