My son loves praying mantis, we get lots of them every year. This one is getting pretty big :) Video was taking with a pixeet fisheye lens for the iphone4, so that it can focus really close to the subject. Despite looking a bit dangerous, these mantis are completely harmless to us, and rely on camouflage. They are hard to find even when it's right in front of your eyes. http://crabfuartworks.blogspot.com/2011/09/mantis-boy.html
