Description

Well took this the other day. I was out and comming up the back porch and saw a little mantid. I saw more and followed to find the freshly hatched casing and all the new mantids walking around. Hope you enjoy. Canon EOS 20D 100mm F2.8 USM Macro 1/100 second F/13.0 ISO 100

Aw, these little mantids are so cute. Yes, I said CUTE! But I can definitely see where they got the idea for the movie Alien. Your insect macros are amazing!
