I don't think your English is bad. A few misspellings here and there but that's natural :wink: .

I like the mantid's white color.

 
I know this may be a taboo topic but are there any good reference materials for proper pinning of mantis? I too would like to preserve any specimens that die at the end of their life cycle. Very nice job btw...
