hi mom - it's a young praying mantis attacking and eating a harlequin bug nymph...ani was particularly impressed that it went for the head first...I saw the mantis on our car and had grabbed a horseradish leaf to coax it off so we could have a better look, turned the leaf over and - DINNER!
thanks for stopping by! (sorry for the inconvenient WORD VERIFICATION - I am receiving a ridiculous amount of spammy computer-generated yuckiness and am hoping this will help...)
OK, so, Ms.Teacher, what are we looking at here?
