Visitor


I came home on Friday to find this guy on my door. Luckily, I had my camera with me. I especially liked his fall coloring, but mostly I liked that he had the ability to turn his head and look directly back at me. It was eerie.

Okay, I would have freaked if he decided to fly or jump or whatever.

Oh cool. I love Praying Mantises. I don't see them that much in Iowa, but they used to be all over the place when we lived in Arizona.

I would have freaked, too... And, remember, I used to squash bugs by the thousands! Never one of those, though!
