Awesome! I haven't seen a mantis for a year, we've been talking about buying some and releasing them.

Re: Kinda' cool garden find...
 

NICE! Good pics, too.

Oh yeah, Hive, don't forget to get out of L.A. :D

wowie :D They sure are good at hiding right? I've never found a single one in folliage, its always when they step out that I get to see them.

think they naturally come around when you stop using chemicals had to get one out of the bath for my wife last night she asked me to throw out a "cricket"

I love the praying mantis. When they look at you with those big eyes, it's freaky.
They are more common in some parts of the country, I think. Don't know for sure.
I wonder if they ever turn atheist.:wink:

Very cool.

I found one here early this spring, picked him up also, I had forgotten how incredibly strong they were....


Good find.

Had one almost as big fall off a blueberry bush onto the tarp I was shakeing the blueberrys into last week.

Hail the praying mantis! :D

I used to love preying mantis until I learned that they will actually kill hummingbirds. My love for hummingbirds far outweigh my love for the preying mantis...

I've also seen walking sticks on my property! Man those things are cool... one was actually clinging to the side of my car one day.

Damn I didn't know that. Looked it up and found...
