Praying Mantis (III)

Posted by Alfredo J. Martiz J. (Panama City, Panama) on 17 May 2007 in Animal & Insect.

This is the last photo of this series of the same praying mantis you saw in the last 2 photos, in the others the mantis was relaxing in one of the chairs of the garden, after a while I found the mantis in the grass.
I had a hard time deciding between color or black and white for this photo. I think the black and white version looks dramatic but finally I decided to show you the color version. I wanted you to see how they look in a natural context and how they blend with the surroundings.
Thank you for your visits and comments!

Photo from a visit to Sawara.
