A few more creepy crawlies.. need some IDs also..

1&2, a praying mantis. I just love these lil guys!

3, huge (moth?), I tried to get an object in there for scale and he flew away before I got the chance! He was at least 5 inches across and was looking for shelter at 6 am yesterday.

4, leaf foot bug? Or is he a bad plant-eater?

5, another mystery bug (beetle?). I almost picked him up to get a clearer shot, then I saw has huge pincers!!
