New Position
I saw a couple of nice examples of camouflage, this weekend--one of three images. I was really delighted to see a 3-inch (huge!) Praying Mantis at Locust Grove in Poughkeepsie, New York, USA on September 23, 2016. When I, first, saw her, she was perched atop a crimson Zinnia, not a good camou choice at all! After a while, she dropped down, below the flower & I was able to watch her capture & devour a bumble bee!
