Kathy Gibbons
another great find love the pose
Doris Potter replied:
Thanks Kathy. It is a rather feminine pose I thought, with her long delicate fore legs.
John Bailey
This is a wonderful capture Doris. I love that she is staring into the camera! v
Doris Potter replied:
Thanks John. By the time I took this shot I think she was glaring instead of staring! LOL.
Fraida Gutovich
This little lady is paying or should I say "praying", very close attention to you Doris! A wonderful macro shot!!! :)
Doris Potter replied:
Thanks Fraida. I swear I kept seeing the same mantis along a path for about 2 or 3 days. At first she stood her ground and I coaxed her into the grasses where she wouldn't be trampled by joggers but, of course, I harassed her with my paparazzi actions. Then the next day at the same place she saw me and hesitated. The third time she took one look at me and tried to high-tail it out of there. I tried not to take it personally. LOL.
