Mantis Watch 10.16.2011
Mantis Watch 10.16.2011 After almost three years in a new neighborhood I had not sighted a single mantis. Then 2.9 miles away from our home, I collected a manila-colored female mantis preying in the sunshine by field bindweed flowers on a low hedge in the endodontist’s parking lot.She spent the next six cool rainy days inside our kitchen window, sipping nectar from joya blossoms and snacking on ground beef tartare.
