There on the side of the back porch steps.
A walking stick!
Walking Sticks are nocturnal herbivores. They walk around and eat plants. Their camouflage is to remain motionless and look like a twig. Only one in a thousand walking sticks is a male, so good chance this one pictured is a female. Inexplicably, she was out of her element, in the middle of the day, on a surface she didn't blend with. Lucky us for the photo op.
