I met up with another ant-mimic mantis at school recently. This time it was bigger than the one I phtoographed in West Coast Park, and had small patches of green and red on its body.

Being very small, it was rather hard to shoot. I thought that the smaller one I shot at the park seemed to be easier than shooting this one.

A beautiful creature it is. Glad to see them in school as it would be nice to see more praying mantises and most probably, there would be less flies and other unwanted insects. Here's a final shot of it on te grass.
