I think it is a case moth but I'm not sure.

@JudyEv I see. Whether butterflies or moths they rarely show themselves. One day I was waiting for the bus and a huge praying mantis showed up. I'm going to try and get the pic for you to see.

@oahuwriter I can see it. Thanks for that. Here is a stick insect in a girl's hair.

What is this, a cocoon ? It changed its mind about the place of its future house.

@JudyEv There are so many unknown species of insects that it is not very surprising.

@topffer And many of them we don't come across very often.

I guess it's a cocoon. I think it is a case moth. That's the nearest I can find but the information for them says 'eastern Australia'.

I've never seen an insect doing anything like this, fascinating You have so many creatures there that don't exist in other parts of the world.

I'm sure we don't have roos or most other types of marsupials found in Australia plus you do have some of strange as well as scary insects and spider there that I've never heard of but then knowing how people are they may have brought them here due to their exotic nature @JudyEv Well, I've never seen any, thank heavens.

You should be on the lookout for them. Maybe they are there but you just haven't seen them.

@rebelann Some of it may be due to the fact that Australia is foreign to. However, America is pretty foreign to me too. South America is less well known and I know they have a great many animals that, a few years ago, I had never heard of. Yet South Americans take them for granted. Am I making sense?

It looks like he was either trying to emerge from a cocoon, or finish making one. And yay, this was the first time I've ever heard your voice!

@JudyEv There's nothing wrong with your voice Judy. Most people do not like the sound of their own voices.

I forgot you're not supposed to talk when taking a video. I got Vince to take it with his bigger lens so it would be clearer. I don't like my voice much - but it's the only one I've got.
