Romain and the Mantis

HOME
 

Romain has a holiday villa in Sunny Spain and contacts to say " I want to share with you one set of a Praying Mantis I found one morning on the ramp of our swimming pool. It was the first time I saw a living Mantis and must say that they are tremendously impressive creatures.

Apparently they are rather frequent in Southern Europe during summer time. Though the danger of my camera was great for it, the Mantis started flirting and followed all movements I made with my camera. That was that very moment I regretted not having a movie camera to fix all movements and so on. The pictures were taken very early in the morning and it was my dog Oskar who first discovered the intruder at the pool side and started barking like mad"
