One of my favorite bugs, nicely capture here Joni! It's cool to see their underbelly, it almost looks like armor. l/f
Joni Eskridge replied:
Thanks Linda! It does look like armor. This up close and personal view was so fascinating. All those intricate features and the face - makes you think much differently about bugs when you see them in this much detail. Thanks for the visit, Linda!

Thanks so much Morris! It may have been the first time ever seeing a Praying Mantis in "the wild." It was pretty exciting for me - especially finding it in such a weird place ( : Appreciate the visit!
