Oh they do indeed exist.
I used to find them all the time as a kid. Haven't seen one for years however.
Obviously their camoflage is excellent in their environment, so they can be tricky to spot.

I used to find them in my mothers garden all the time. Lots of plants for them to hide in, but not TOO much to block your search. Plus they'd have plenty of insects to eat.
