Description

This nice specimen of a Praying (or is that Preying?) Mantis sat nicely on a picnic table earlier today allowing me to snap some rather close pictures.

Pictures taken at one of the shelter buildings at Winthrop Harbor Marina. Winthrop Harbor, IL.

Camera is a Pentax Optio 33LF Digital. Original pics grouped and resized smaller for easier online viewing.
