 Sitting outside on the deck, I spotted a strange local insect I'd not witnessed before and thought I'd take some photos of it. Upon investigation, it seems that this strange creature is known as a "Spotted Camel Cricket"... and they say Australia's bugs are weird.

I love the contrasting colors and the detail in the foreground transitioning into the creamy background.
