Harold the Praying Mantis (from August 2012)

Meet Harold! This my new best friend Harold the Praying Mantis He has made his home on my patio rocking chair. 3 days ago I was coming in and removed my towel to find his little beady eyes smiling at me. I gently touched him to move him off the towel. He didn't bite :D Yesterday Hubby and I were having lunch when a tan head popped up at the dining table! Oh dear he must have come in on my towel the day before. He graciously accepted Hubby's hand to get a lift back outside. Once outside he recognised his chair and hopped back on it. I took this picture of him today. There are lots of moths and gnats for him to eat on our patio. Hi Harold I love you ♥
