[nysbirds-l] praying mantid at feeder
How funny is it that after reading an article in the Science Times on tuesday about mantises and hummingbirds getting caught by praying mantids that I'd find a big female Chinese Mantid on my hummer feeders this am:-) Luckily the hummers seem to have moved on in the last few days so no chance on it catching one.
