Europeans Love Katy

[sporeworld]

Here's video of my Europen EVENTUALLY attacking a Katydid (with a little help from my fly swatter). It runs long (becuase I don't know how to edit video yet). Enjoy.

Note: Maybe this doesn't belong in "Food & Feeding", but I didn't see a heading for "Attacks and Sulks Off"... (smlies)

woah really cool!

How old is that mantis?

( wish mine would eat :angry: )

Adult female - one of the ones that just flew up to me while walking and essentially said "Feed Me". The Katydid said the same thing, but, well... I may have misinterpreted his message...
