"Is the gym *flexes left* this way or *flexes right* this way?"

Very incredible.

THAT IS REAL!?! I can't know what part is what?!?! Please tell me their name , PLEASE!

This is such an amazing and yet slightly strange looking insect I've seen. ( and yes, I would definitely say it is the showiest mantis i have ever seen...mainly because I've only seen about two real mantises in my life....but all that aside, this animal is pretty showy for an insect!)

I was going to ask how you got the shot, but I eventually found it in the answers. (You scared it! the poor dear...oh well, I'm sure it's fine, and as you said there were no signs of trauma!)
