Walking through the Tall Bluestem several weeks ago and noticed a large, 3", mantis poised on the attraction--Russian thistle. The thistle draws a host of insects and the mantis must know that, right?
Perhaps not a great photo feat but I was lucky to notice the critter. That's is one aspect photographers have over the general public--lookin as well as seeing.

Nice catch Larry. Those are neat insects, the heads remind me of an old alien movie.

Good eye to spot this scene Larry. I like the inverted position of the mantis and the slight cock of its head. Good and sharp too.

Good eyes to spot this, I would have walked by it for sure.
