“His eyes reflected the open grey of the autumnal sky.”

The Praying Mantis is such a delicate creature, and yet does so much work in the garden, devouring naughty little creatures, such as aphids. This one is a California Praying Mantis, and it's gorgeous! Harmless to humans, it simply visited the corner of my condo, posed for the million pictures I took of it, and quietly went about it's way. Praying Mantis do most of the hunting at night, and that's kinda cool. I guess that's why I rarely see them in the daylight. I am enjoying discovering new things to photograph, especially the critters I would ordinarily run from! I am becoming brave in my old age!
