Specklet beware

Praying Mantises were my favorite bug as a kid. I'd let them nibble on me a bit, for fun.

Hee! Mine never bit me, but then again, I let them all go before they got too big. The gliders, on the other hand...

Specklet, that's a great flickr set. The kids and I just went through it.

I still love finding mantis in my garden. I remember how horrified I was when one of my kids accidentally killed one while playing in the yard. Poor kid. I think it scarred him for life.

Suddenly I can't get the old horror movie The Deadly Mantis out of my head. Which is okay, because it was hilariously bad.
