Awesome. A fellow bug-poker. Pals forever. (Isn’t online life great? We can admit to hobbies that would cause real life people to point and laugh)
I just joined because of all you nature people.
And because Eve just answered one of my threads. If that isn’t an auspicious sign- I don’t know what is.
Well, I saw a praying mantis up close and personal for the first time today! I was weeding around the agapanthas at the barn where I work and I thought it was a dead leaf. It was pale tan in color. I called my son and some of the (totally not squeamish) teenaged girls over and we all remarked on how cool it was.
Later, while trimming back another plant, I found several that were light green…the same color as the leaves. I didn’t know they had chameleon-like abilities. They just look so serene and wise.
