Awesome banner! Flowers are beautiful, but I love banners like this to mix it up!

Praying Mantis is a friend. Seldom see them but they are fascinating.

Really wonderful banner, Fleur. A brilliant photo of a fascinating creature that we don't have here.

Hey Mika, you can buy them in the UK! They'd probably have to be pets and couldn't survive outside in the garden.

Thanks, Karen! There are some with amazing colours - no idea about how to care for them, but I'll have a look.

It would be fun to have them if it was possible to give them the right care and food. They're fascinating to watch. We have green ones and brown ones here in NM.

Usually a friend but a foe to butterflies, even hummingbirds.
Nothing that's been done can ever be changed.

I learned quite a few interesting facts from this banner. Thank you for participating with your comments and good marks on the Mantis.
