California Mantis (Stagmomantis californica)
Wow Palmbob! He looks healthy... I love praying mantises.
I'm sure he's dead now.. only live one summer it seems.
They have a 'territory' they stay in. I didn't see any this summer, but last year I had several, and they were always in the same area when I'd see them. I think I might order some next spring and let them out in my back yard.
