We're safe

The tornadoes that struck the St Louis area were fortunately not near me. We live in South St Louis County. The twisters were all in North County, about 15 miles away. We had hail and strong winds, but nothing real bad

I am glad you two are okay!

Good to hear you and Marlin are okay.

Did you include a picture of the mantis? I don't see it in your post.

Good to know you guys are OK.

I've never seen a mantis egg case spring its little ones! This is good for your yard as the mantis eats other bugs.
