Say hi to my buddy Bill, He has come to visit me and I thought I would snap some shots, I wish I had my real camera, but this IPhone does a good job. I have not seen a preying mantis in a couple of decades.
Has to be one of the coolest Bug EVER
I never saw one live, I envy you !!! Thx for showing Pete !
they are something
WOW!!!! He looks like a monster!!! Those things must have come from another planet....
Insects make me uncomfortable,
but Pete, you made them look half-friendly (Heh)
so I wondered, why does your buddy Bill
and beings like him make me feel prickly
and vulnerable?
for something that looks so mean, it felt very vulnerable in my hand when I moved him to a bush out of harms way
Humanity must thank you
for improving our relations
with all beings of the praying mantis'
kingdom 
a monster
He is huge! #2 is great shot with the reflection.
