The Praying Mantis in the Mint

I have just a few minutes before I have to get ready for my Bellydancing Class. But I wanted to share the Praying Mantis with you.

I was on my way upstairs with the mint I picked to dry for tea when I saw her.   She was standing with a foot on two different leaves, her arms waving in warning.

I apologized and brought her back outside where she hopped off the leaves onto the mint plants growing in my garden.

Back to doing her important work.
