Mantises!
Posted these over at i_heart_bugs, but posting them here as well for people on my flist. :3 (Don't worry, there are no spiders... this time.) And yes, each photo shows a different mantis - there were that many of them in my yard last week.
Using my hand to show scale:
I was taking a picture of this nifty brown mantis, and got photobombed by a green one! I didn't even realize there was a second mantis there until I looked at the pictures. XD
Mantis egg cases:
And lastly, this gigantic fucking bee... thing.
