This late season visitor appeared while I was refilling the humming bird feeders. It was early in the morning, when the cold blooded ones move slowly. I got right up to him and snapped this. The background colors are blue sky and the overhang of my garage, quite out of focus and interesting. Click on the image for a larger view.

Nice image… Have you seen any mantids this year? Don’t think I’ve seen a one.

GrannyJ – No, I don’t recall seeing any. They were never very numerous around my place. I did see far fewer grasshoppers than in previous years. Perhaps it was our very wet rainy season this year?
