Spiney leaf insect.
It is a phasmid, a.k.a. stick insect
Plenty of stick insects up here but the first I have seen with a curved tail. Extatosoma tiaratum

"He didn't have ID so couldn't get a drink," he said of the appearance at the RSL."
"A rare bird normally found in the central Pacific, which lost its way and ended up on a pub balcony in Sydney, has been released back into its natural habitat.Key points:
- A rarely seen Bulwer's petrel, usually found in the central Pacific, blew way off course and ended up in Cronulla in NSW
- After spending a week recovering, the bird — nicknamed Buggerlugs — was flown to Darwin and released
- An ornithologist involved in Buggerlugs' release says letting him go in New South Wales would have been "like releasing it in the desert"
In the first officially recorded appearance of a live Bulwer's petrel in Australia, the bird nicknamed Buggerlugs
"
Travelling in styleBuggerlugs was fattened up with southern bluefin tuna (at $130 per kilo), wombaroo, insectivore mix, and sea water.Funds were raised and tickets booked to bring Buggerlugs to Darwin on a scheduled commercial flight.
