Thanks for views, comments and favs :)

Thou shall not pass!

It started out as a feeling

Which then grew into a hope

Which then turned into a quiet thought

Which then turned into a quiet word

 

Just because everything's changing

Doesn't mean it's never

Been this way before

 

All you can do is try to know

Who your friends are

As you head off to the war

 

Pick a star on the dark horizon

And follow the light

Thanks to this mantis who rested on my doorstep this afternoon.

Esto tiene mala pinta

Con esta fotografía acabo con la historia de la polilla y la mantis.

Tengo muchas más fotografías del vuelo ,caza y comida pero con estas creo que se pueden imaginar toda la historia.

Lo que es bueno para uno es malo para el otro

Mantis religiosa, comúnmente llamada santateresa, o simplemente mantis, es una especie de insecto mantodeo de la familia Mantidae. Tiene una amplia distribución geográfica en todo el Viejo Mundo (Eurasia y África), con numerosas subespecies según las regiones. Fue introducida en Norteamérica en 1899

European praying mantises reproduce only once in their lifetime, and all adults die before winter, while the offspring overwinter in the embryonic stage in the egg.[

The European praying mantis practices sexual cannibalism, meaning that in the wild (in up to 30 percent of cases) the male is eaten by the female during or after mating.

************************************************

" Gottesanbeterin - Blickkontakt "

 

Europäische Gottesanbeterinnen pflanzen sich nur einmal im Leben fort, und alle erwachsenen Tiere sterben vor dem Winter, während der Nachwuchs im Embryonalstadium im Ei überwintert.[

Die europäische Gottesanbeterin praktiziert sexuellen Kannibalismus, d. h. das Männchen wird in freier Wildbahn (in bis zu 30 Prozent der Fälle) während oder nach der Paarung vom Weibchen aufgefressen.

This fellow was out on my back deck this afternoon. He didn't seem to mind me snapping his picture.

A juvenile Mantis religiosa found in a beautiful August morning. Working with this cool species is challenging but so rewarding!

 

There will be more images of this specimen in the near future.

Mantis live in continental Europe but not in the British Isles. We found them in the garden in Oxfordshire. They are probably escaped from someone that was keeping them as pet.

The Thistle Mantis (Blepharopsis mendica)—a delicate predator cloaked in beauty. Native to North Africa and the Canary Islands, it blends perfectly with dry thistles, its patterned body mimicking flowers with uncanny precision. A living masterpiece of camouflage and form.

I was so excited to come across a Conehead Mantis (Empusa pennata) today! They are such weird-looking bugs and so difficult to spot due to the perfect camouflage.
