This same Saturday we spent at the market...we came home to find this lovely bug on our front porch...
It was HUGE...a hand-sized praying mantis is pretty dang large!
Anyway, at the market I had bought a gift for someone back home (I won't share who because it's a surprise). This gift was a metal praying mantis...handmade and pretty amazing if you ask me. Anyway, of course it became a game. We ended up with several youth and a few kids on our porch having "bug wars".
It was great entertainment for a Saturday afternoon...take a look!

For a few minutes we weren't sure who would win the "bug wars"...
...but after a fierce battle...
The live praying mantis won fare and square!

ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome Meghann!!!! I love it! I want to hear more about it! I've seen this same P. Mantis in the prayer hut, imagine that! Or it's a close relative. Or a distant cousin. Maybe the meditating mantis. i ramble!
