Great Seal State Park Tours

The rusted out shell of an #abandoned old car found just off a hiking trail inside Great Seal State Park. Based upon the state of decay, the style of the body and the fact that there is a 30ft tree growing up through where the engine should be...this guy's been here awhile.

Look closely and you'll see a walking stick! It is unbelievable the natural camouflage of this order of insect. The segmented body of this insect absolutely mimics the nodes and inter-nodes of a woody stem.
