Insect Visitor......


While I was taking photos of the zinnias yesterday,  I was surprised to see this praying mantis.  It is very large compared to the one small white one that I posted shots of a few months ago.

Wow! He is almost bigger than the flower. I have never seen one this color.

 At four in the morning and one is walking the empty hallways, one never knows what the camera might shoot.
