Leaf Bug Fun


Oh the bugs you will find in the woods of TN....

This little green guy disguised as a leaf invaded our house last night, we played until our Cat Jojo wanted to make him a 2 am snack.

One of Reef's Alien toys that was in my kitchen waiting to be washed (he was still covered in mud from our fossil dig/mud play day) The Leaf bug liked him!

He flew up to the top of my cabinet to land on one of my sticks from the desert in California. I made Reef get him down.

He flew back on to the alien....

hung out on the blinds for a minute

chilled on the cabinet for a minute

made his way in to the living room where my cat Jojo quickly spotted him and tried eating him, so I scooped him up and put him back outside. Jojo was not happy with this decision however I am sure the leaf bug was glad he got to live another day.
