To see the hidden insect, move your cursor over the image!

CRYPSIS - naked camouflage. Many people think this hide-n-seek technique is called camouflage. But camouflage involves wearing a costume for concealment. Wrapping dried leaves around yourself to hide is camouflage. But this dragonfly is hidden because it landed in a place that looks just like it does. It isn’t wearing a costume. It just looks like a tree. It is cryptic. If it didn’t land at the just right time, it never would have had its picture taken!
(Thanks to Brian for the set up!)
