How amazing are Praying Mantis's?

[Jessie]

So I got Bugsey today and i will tell you I have never seen an bug like this one, the way Praying Mantis's study you. The way their expression's are its like they are human, its crazy. Its weird I felt a connection with mine like he could stare into my eyes and know what I am thinking. I know that sounds silly, he perched on my finger its body swaying as it watched me. Didn't put its claws out tho like they do when their scared. Don't know what that is about.

Yes, they're absolutely amazing creatures! I love them. What kind is yours?

 

[Jessie]

I got one bugsey. Decided to do one at a time so I can give it the proper attention.

When he gets bigger, watch his mouth parts when you handle him.    Amazing when you see the movements he uses for smiling at you!       :huh:

 

[Jessie]

Whats that look like?

The part about smiling was very meant to be a joke.  Often when they get used to you some will recognize you and get real active. When it happens you will be pleasantly surprised.
