Ma'am. Excuse me ma'am you can't stand on the counter.
Bonus Daffodil cleaning her leggy!!

[ID: an illustration of a pink mantis facing to the right, on a teal background with pink petals and green leaves. End.]
Orchid mantis! Adapted to camouflage amongst orchid flowers and ambush pollinators with swift arms and a powerful bite.

One of the prettiest I've ever seen, with those green eyes. She looks like a tapestry from above. Although we have 4 kinds of mantids in my area, this is the only native one and I'm always happy to find them.

More pics of my pet mantis Daffodil on my miniature, but now she's an adult!
:O that me!
This time she really, really wanted to just climb up high lol. Makes sense because she spends like 90% of her time upside down.
Ma'am, please, the door is not for climbing.
(look at her antennae moving!)
Oh my goodness I can't bring you anywhere Daffodil!! They have printed paper menus you don't have to climb up close to look!!!
I gave her a juicy cricket for her time! Everyone say thank you Daffodil!
:I :o

a wonderful encounter with a Spiny Grass Mantis. mantids are really something special, it feels like there's a lot of intelligence and awareness about them (or perhaps I'm just anthropomorphising lol).
at any rate, she* was very patient with us as we fawned over her and took a ton of photos, before gently returning her to the fence to continue her prowl.
I especially love this photo of her foreleg, such wonderfully intense spines!
*I don't actually know how to sex mantids, my guess is based entirely on their short wings and generally large size. I welcome any corrections or tips on determining mantis sex!
Spiny Grass Mantis, female(?) (Archimantis armata).
