The guardian at the security gate
# Guess who was sitting on my security gate as I got up to go to work today...

None other than a stick insect praying mantis.

It was such a fine specimen I just had to get some close ups of it.

# I wonder what it is praying for, rain perhaps?

# The eyes are just freaky!!!

http://i1024.photobucket.com/albums/y301/gavvet/DSCN2010sel_zpsuq3v9ycx.jpg


# After all the posing a last couple of shots in the vegetation where I left it to continue looking like a stick.

Great camouflage!  If I saw one, I would definitely think it was a stick.

Steem on,
