I really can't photograph this praying mantis enough, I think I'm a little obsessed and Hermie is clearly jealous. He was gone from his front door post for several days, then reappeared yesterday with one less limb. This morning I did a little mantis research and learned this is a male and since he has wings already his limb most likely will not grow back. I hope he can survive with just the one!

Poor little guy! I hope her survives too. Don't you wish you could keep him in and keep him safe?
So nice to see him up close and personal!
LOVE this photo.. a few days ago my daughter and I saw a GIGANTIC praying mantis on the window at a grocery store. I wished I'd had my camera- it was seriously like 5 or 6 inches long. I'm so behind-the-times that even my cell phone doesn't have a camera!
