Many thanks gandolfi for the feedback, much appreciated.Great stuff, K-H. Loved the hummer/mantis stand off pics:thumbs:
Yup, that was a rare event seeing that Praying Mantis climb down from the Acacia tree onto the Hummingbird feeder for several days in a row, waiting for its prey to get close enough, striking with lightning speed, consuming a Bee or feeding on a Hummingbird it had killed, and then climbing slowly back into the tree with rocking motion.
Amazing to watch from a distance. It would notice if one got too close and climb back into the tree right away and hide there among the leaves.
