Description
A couple day ago, I found this praying mantis in my greenhouse. Guess he came in with some of the plants I moved inside for the winter. So far, even during the day when I leave the door open so it doesn't get too hot, he hasn't left. Guess he has found himself a home for the winter also. Kind of glad he's in there. He'll help keep the other bug population under control.
Thanks for all your wonderful comments
on my last upload,
"Blaze"
Many thanks,
Cherokee
