Devouring a butterfly.
Tasty flower.
Holding on!
Check out his leg holds.
In the bushes.
I had the pleasure of photographing at a private home this morning full of butterflies, dragonflies and even this spectacular praying mantis. We saw him with a butterfly which was quite a site. All part of nature.
What great shots! Really fascinating creature.
Thanks Julia, he was in the middle of many flowers and difficult to get to… but fascinating watching him. We didn’t like him eating the butterfly but it was a site I had never seen.
These praying mantis photos reminded me that I took a humorous photo of an encounter between a kitten and a praying mantis. I wanted to share it with you, but there’s no place to insert or attach a photo.
Jean.. would love to see your image… can you send to susanbaileyphoto@gmail.com?
Thanks! Susan
