Mantis

 I found this little Praying Mantis on my desk this evening.

I thought at first that it had a bit of lint caught on its tail.  On looking at a closer shot it seemed he had just crawled out of his skin as he grew too big for it.

Nice to see this little guy.  I thought maybe they had all been poisoned by the neighborhood exterminator.  I'm hoping he has a taste for ants.
