"Manti" the Praying Mantis, visits me all summer. She hangs out on my screen door, rose bushes and Mammoth Sunflower. She looks like an old fashioned wooden clothes pin. Manti has a guy friend who is 1/3rd her size. She's a beneficial garden friend who devourers annoying aphid & bugs that devastate rose bushes and other plants. She lets me hold her, turns her head to listen. I miss her this fall.
