Look what we found in the garden today: a praying mantis larvae case. it looks as if the larvae have fled the coop and we will have some nice big mantises stalking around the garden in summertime.

Our mantis population grows every year and we love those quirky looking creatures. They take forever to pounce on their prey! They move so slowly that birds catch them alas, but everyone needs to eat.
