Subject: Immature California Mantis

Since we have been experiencing technical difficulties with our submission form, we have not been receiving the number of identification requests we normally experience at this time of year. We apologize to all of you who are unable to submit images for identification purposes. Meanwhile, it is giving us an opportunity to post a few visitors to our offices. Each year we see several California Mantids in the garden, and this immature hunter was prowling the Hoja Santa leaves for prey. The next day we saw another individual on the porch light where the moth hunting was quite good.
