The mantis (Conehead mantis, lat. empusa pennata) is rare and very hard to notice in the nature. I found it just 3-4" below this flower (Prospero autumnale, lat. scilla autumnalis). I touch the mantis few times with my finger to climb on the top of the flower.
5DIII, 100mm L IS, handheld, 1/1250, f/13, ISO800, natural light
PP: removed blade of grass & NR of BG
Full size: 2817 x 4226 pixels
Location: The Island of Pag, Croatia. August 2014.
Thanks for viewing and CC.
