This is nothing but a gratuitous shot of a mantis brandishing itself. You're welcome.
The blurry suburban background makes it a bit disconcerting; I don't think we could long survive an attack by a gargantuan mantis.

that mantis looks positively cocky, like he knows he's better than us...*shifty eyes*
As much as I hate bugs, this is almost cute...
see how he's kind of smiling?
Ok, blech, nevermind.
It's so cute how fierce they act when they can't hurt anything bigger than they are! :)
Yeah, I'd say this is way more cute than ugly. It helps that he is such a lovely shade of green with that little flash on the end. if he were brown, maybe not so much. And he's all like, "Ta-da!"
Lol... cocky is such the word to describe them. I love how they just show off and get into that pose like "Yeah! Come get some!" lol... very cute
It just looks to me like he is belting out "Life is a caberet, old chum. Come to the Caaabeereeet!!"

That's exactly what I was thinking Trish. Ta Da!
Pretty! I like grasshopper wings too.
This is the coolest picture of one of these guys ever!
Oh and I adore your blog. The beautiful orb weaver on my porch past away today and I was feeling sad, but coming here has cheered me up a bit. Thanks.

I'm glad you like it, Laura. I approve of adoration. :)
