Non-Competitive Photo Shoot #2

Okay, Dad, you have 20 minutes to get a better picture of a Walking Stick. Go!
WG earned serious points by the boy for bringing the bug over, but the boy earned no points from the bug. As it turns out, looking like a stick is in no way a deterrent to a teenage boy. The poor bug was held, turned, dropped, grabbed, studied and photographed. When finally he was placed in the herb garden, he struck a rather forlorn five-legged pose on a basil leaf. He was still there hours later. We are fairly certain this is the official Walking Stick sign of surrender.

Note: No calls from the SPCA of Southwest Michigan were received.
Whew.
