Hey, ma! Look a what I caught

[jriepe]

A couple summers ago I spotted this butterfly and was wondering why it was situated in the position it was. &nbsp;As I looked closer I saw the mantis so I ran inside and grabbed the camera. &nbsp;Later I was thinking I should have hung around and got a shot of him eating it but aren't we all Monday morning quarterbacks at times?<br><br>Jerry<br><br>

Quite embarrassing to say the least. I went back to correct something and accidentally posted this twice. I wanted to delete one of them but don't know how. If a moderator sees this please delete one of these. Thank you.

Cool capture! I love the look the mantis is giving you like, "Hey, get away from my breakfast!"

Cool capture! I love the look the manis is giving you like, "Hey, get away from my breakfast!"

I don't know, I was thinking he looked more like, "Back off dude, or you might be NEXT..."

Nice capture, Jerry!

Nice capture, Jerry!

Either way, those things creep me out LOL something about the eyes.

Very nice photo!

Great capture, Jerry. She seemed reluctant to share her catch.

Thanks everyone for commenting. Wonder if a butterfly is what this mantis was "praying" for.
