now I know this looks just like the real thing John because a praying mantis took residence on a trellis on the wall outside the villa in Spain - I grabbed my camera and took 20 photos because I thought he would disappear, but he was still there 2 days later! lol! Now this is a very much scaled up version and I am out of here before he jumps out of my pc and gets me! haha! Patti

Picture Purrrfect . A purrrfect world is what we all want, but, seems too unobtainable.

Also BIG thanks to all who check out my work!! I appreciate any and all comments & feedback!!

Well, this mantis looks real evil. So luminous and grinning madly... I am going to say again that you keep company with strange, often dangerous creatures... You are so brave... LOL :)
