Plume Moth

Pterophoridae

Description:

possible stick bug??? this little one sat on our door frame in our backyard for almost 12 hours. is it possible it came and went to the same exact spot?? the door opened & closed throughout the day, but didn't fly away. we did see its body parts move though. looks like a type of stick bug. we searched & searched online but couldn't find this exact one.

Habitat:

our backyard.

Notes:

would love to know what it is called.
