Wow, that is sooooo cool!! I love my praying mantis' and how they take care of so many bad buggies. I know to not try to handle them, unlike my kids who try really hard, only to have it fly off!
(lucky them, they didn't get bit for it!)
It's not all that big, and just sits on the cross section of my chain fence. The green/brown you see around it, is just the tall grass/
weeds growing up around the fence there.
I'll be keeping my eyes on it! And yea, if someone could change the title to Meg's Praying Mantis Cocoon, or something like that.. that'd make it easier to find.
