Marchel,

He is a praying mantis.  We found him while we were walking the other day.  He kept watching me.....his eyes are very eerie.

Great close-up shot and an interesting angle as well. Probably not too many pictures like this one. :)

Oooooh Ann, I was cold anyway, and then seeing your new friend gave me a chill! LOL  I think they are so interesting, and their faces remind me of an alien ...do you think they use the praying mantis in Alien movies???

Hi Ann, I like your new friend. He looks like an alien from outer space with those big beady eyes that you indicated followed you everywhere!  He blends in with your outfit - looks like you two are dressed in the same colors that day - LOL!

Ann, I use to see praying mantis's around here all the time, but it has been a few years since I have seen one.

The person holding this little creature is NOT me....  That would be my daughter.  The nature queen!
