Title image

Praying mantis

Spacer
This praying mantis was more typical of those we found in Provence. I'm not sure whether these were adults or early stadia of larger insects. This one is pictured on the finger of 11 year old James. (All of the pictures in this gallery were taken in the garden of 'La Roque', near Ginasservis in Provence, southern France in 2004.)
