Holy BeJesus I jumped nearly out of my chair..

I hate those damn things!!!!

Good pictures tho!

I don't like em and can't walk outside if I know there's one outside,but I could never kill one. They are good. They just look incredibly creepy and scary. )

Awesome pics Sue! I have had several generations of manits living in my garden stemming from a momma mantis that I found 5 years ago. She was never really scared of me and when the season was coming to and end she hung out on my basement window so I could see her when I was doing laundry......she left her egg case where I could find it and have been taking care of her ancestors ever since! Probably my favorite bug!!

Love the pics......

Hi suemack

Great pictures!

I haven't seen one of those awesome creatures in many years.

I haven't seen one in a very long time either. I believe the last time was when I was about 10 and I was at my Aunt's house, and we found one in her front yard. This was a decade and a half ago.

"Where have all the mantis' gone.... "

Okay, anyhow.......AWESOME PICTURES!! You could sell those!
