Mantis Monday


Thanks Michael, for bringing in the beautiful praying mantis. They are quite active and visible this time of year as they are getting ready to lay eggs, and the foliage where they hide is starting to die back for the winter.
An extra credit opportunity: using the visible markings on the meter stick, how long is the mantis from head to bottom end, ignoring antennae and legs? Click on the word comments below and leave your estimate.
