And Another One Visits!
This year I have seen so many Praying Mantis, probably more than I have seen in most of my life combined. Maybe a slight stretch but hopefully you get my point.
I enjoy photographing them as they usually seem to be looking at me trying to figure out what the heck I am doing.
Thanks for visiting!

Reflections for my Soul 
It’s very pretty! I wonder what species it is?

Great photos. It’s most likely a male Carolina Mantis (Stagmomantis carolina).

Those are little killers. š Funny, the ones we see here are emerald green. Not a spot. Probably to mimetize against the environment.

Killers they ate especially the females. We’r do have green ones here but for some reason only these brown ones seen too like my yard.

It may depend on the colours that predominate in your yard. Maybe they can escape predators easier depending on the colour of the background.

That is a possibility.
