Insect Photography #37 - Unexpected Visitor A Green Praying Mantis In My Computer Monitor

Praying Mantis

When I looked up at my computer monitor I saw a big green Praying Mantis attached to my monitor it's about 3 or 4 inches long. The appearance of the green Praying Mantis has big two eyes with long two front legs modified for grasping, two antennas, and of course two pairs of wings. I'm a little bit scared when I saw that Prating Mantis because we have a folks story about the Mantis most of the elders said if you span by the Mantis you become a small funny story right?.

It's not about the funny story of why I'm felt a little bit scared because of the position of the Praying Mantis I don't know how I taking a shoot because it's too high. I'm thinking maybe when I take a photograph, they jump at me and because I'm scared maybe I fall to the ground. When I taking the first shoot I managed how is my position while I'm taking a photograph. Every time my phone close to the Mantis, Mantis looks at me with a very scary look and I've felt a little bit nervous, but when I'm taking a photograph of the Praying Mantis from a different angle, I'm so happy. Down below you can see some of my photographs of the Praying Mantis.

Here's are the photographs of the top of the head of the Praying Mantis.

Here's are the other angles of the Praying Mantis some of the photographs look very close because I used the 2x optical zoom of my camera.

Here is the position of the Praying Mantis without a macro lens with a normal shoot.
