poor thingie -can\'t quite find the word for it xP-
though I must say praying mantises are extraordinary.
anyway, I love the colours... the green just pops out, don\'t really know how to put it in words.
let us just stick to; \"I like it ^^\"

You are hand-feeding a Mantis ??
I can't see the link, it says "forbidden"...
This photo is amazing, and I like the way it is so beautiful and cruel at the same time. ^^

This just feels like such an intimate peek into a world that most people take for granted. Kudos on this one!

What species? It doesn't seem to have the right body proportions to be a Praying mantis, and the coloration doesn't match that of a flower mantis.
