I was a little bit surprised when this big guy flew away from the small tree that I was about to observe on my previous photo hunt. it seemed that it realized my present faster than I could spot him.
Lucky for me maybe because of its size and thus it became a little bit heavy, so that it could not fly that far, and gave me the chance to follow it, and then take several photos of this big brow bug. Definitely blowing up its camouflage far too soon that it supposed to be, but at least I could follow it and take these photos.
It seems that this big bug in one of the Leaf-footed bug, as it has such an flat and enlarged shape of its hind le. It makes this big guy look even more tougher, compared to the other species, from different genera in the same family.
look closely at the shape of its hind leg, so different from the other pair of legs. and it also make this bug so beautiful and interesting.
