Eyes on the Pray
The praying mantis hidden in plain sight. Although the praying mantis has extreme camouflage abilities I spotted her exquisite body stood still as she posed for me this hot Sunday morning. She may look serene and laid back but I saw her devour a butterfly’s body on Saturday. Yes, this morning we had a staring contest! She won!
