Walking stick like - Timema - Male Female
Glen Ellen at Bouverie Perserve, Sonoma County, California, USA
May 3, 2008
Size: 40mm
Found these two on north slope of canyon, look like "Timema" in guide but not a prefect fit. I have seen these insects before but not that often.

Timema sp.
You have the right genus. No telling the species, might even be an undescribed one, as I seem to recall there is at least one awaiting a name....
