While exploring the lush forest near my house, I found a beautiful creature with a calm demeanor, it was a pair of leaf-footed insects or better known scientifically as the "Mictini ", this insect is one example of the wonders of nature that exist around us.

Leaf-footed insects look very unique, they have a body color that resembles the color of dry leaves, the color and texture that resemble the surrounding environment, and this makes it very possible for these insects to camouflage themselves from the targets of predators in the wild, basically this type of insect has varying sizes, ranging from small to medium sized, but I was lucky today I found them medium sized and they are adult insects, besides that I also observed for a while and another unique thing that I have found is that their slow movements are very difficult to detect from a distance, so it can be concluded that these insects will be safe from the targets of predators such as birds.
