I now have to get it home.
So I go home to get the pickup truck. Well once he saw I had a truck, I ended up carting out three end tables & two bird cages all for a mere $10. Either he is an excellent salesman or I have developed a serious junking problem. Or more likely I'm just a sucker for sweet old guy who's begging me to take the crap so he doesn't have to move it all back into his house. Back home we start to unload our treasure & I see that someone has hitched a ride to our house.
Someone being a Cute Baby Praying Mantis!
Awe, look at those eyes.
Such a tiny nymph, I'm glad I spotted her & she didn't get crushed in the move. If she's lucky perhaps she'll find mate around here. Then she can bite his head off. Ferocious little insects. Wouldn't want to meet her on a dark leaf.
Ciao!
