So I was making dinner one night and had just placed Charley's bowl on the table to cool. The dish towel was hanging on the back of a chair and I went to grab it when I noticed a big stick stuck to the towel or the chair. It was so weird I had to lean in for a closer look. As I leaned in, I noticed that the stick slowly looked straight back at me!!!!! I quickly realized that a praying mantis was staring me down. Of course I yelped for Ameri and told him to grab the camera quick!
The following picture is not great because I was a little nervous when I took it. I AM NOT an insect type 'o gal. As Ameri is my insect champion, I asked him to take it outside. I'm pretty sure it was a male so I felt sorry for him knowing what his last few moments were likely to be and I just couldn't kill him. Besides, he'd make a big mess and we were about to eat!
Here he is:
