It's a baby praying mantis!
A couple of weeks ago we found a baby praying mantis in one of our front yard flower beds. He became attached to Tim and he couldn't put him down without the mantis clamoring back to him. It was really cute.Here he is on out bottlebrush bush:
Here is our egg sack. We are still waiting for them to hatch. IF it ever hatches we should have between 100 - 200 babies.
