I found the teeniest tiniest

Praying mantis in my garden this morning. I just checked and he’s still hanging out.


It’s hard to tell but he’s only maybe an inch long at most. Like could fit on my fingertip.

When I was a kid we ordered this “egg” that was supposed to release praying mantises in our yard. NEver found a single one. They are pretty hard to find. At least it seems that way to me. Only seen a few in real life in my lifetime.

I’ve seen only a few as well but I purposely look for bugs in my garden lol, I suddenly have a lot of grass hoppers, and my favorite to find are jumping spiders .

They’re pretty small and fuzzy and have really buggy eyes. They do jump a lot . But a lot of them like humans, lol I can usually get them to crawl on my hands on their own. I love finding a really big one
