Katnapper's Picture of Today

[Katnapper]

Thought I'd add a current pic of me... taken this past week by my Mom. She lives in Springfield, IL, and I went down to visit her and we went to the State Fair together that day... just me and her. It was nice... no screaming kids (none of ours anyway!), and no time constraints or agenda. The fair was the same-old, same-old, and not really that interesting. But I loved the quality time with Mom all day!

It was hot... I had my hair up.

Yes, now's a good time for everyone to call their moms and touch base. You're exempt, Phil.

She sure is pretty! And he was handsome too from what I can tell by what's left of him...

How big they are in adult??

I've never measured exactly, but I'd say they are in between a medium to large size mantis.
