CW: photo of an insect! #entomophobia #prayingmantis

Rescued this lovely future momma from my driveway on my way in after getting home from work. A bug-loving friend ID'd her as a Chinese mantis. They're pretty common around here. If you look under her abdomen you can see her baby(s) bump!

Very small!

This deadly beauty is a black ghost mantis. Her name is Giulia🖤

Just out here chilling! #prayingmantis

I've been rescuing praying mantises all week from my two mischievous cats.

The cats touch them w/their paws and back off when the mantises' boxing stances scare them.

Here's one I gently placed on my tall citronella plant just now, with curious culprits in the background.

Had a welcome visitor at the backdoor this afternoon.

I know you guys love dragons, so here's a cool video I found of one of the honorary dragons of the insect world.

Found a lady mantis while cleaning up my trellis. We relocated her to the safety of a nearby butterfly bush.
