Quick bug hunt today

[Rick]

Great pics! Can't wait until we go collecting.

Just let me know. My weekends are free unless I tell you otherwise. I have to go out again before the next bugshow. BTW, are you coming to that one too?

Looks like fun Rick! Very high density. The tree is full of oothecae, looks like christmas tree

Also, i have noticed that the place with high density on Chinese mantis usually means low density on other species of mantis. Even for narrow wing in this case. The larger T. sinesis must be like the T. rex in mantis world. Lot of competitors.

I agree. There were some stagmomantis but very few. The narrow wing mantis in this area is in one small area that is not very big. You cross the road and there are none but there are chinese there. I did find one very old narrow wing ooth in the area full of the chinese.

I would love to get in on that too if you two wouldn't mind the company. I'm still trying to train my eye... right now my best luck is when I see legs sticking out of bushes.
