152: Mantis religiosa

I had a fun picture of Matt and Norris from trivia tonight but when we got home I noticed a praying mantis on my car roof. I snapped a few shots with my pocket camera but decided to go back inside to get my "real" camera. The mantis was patient for a few shots and then started to try to attack my lens so I cut the photo shoot short. Pretty odd looking thing but a neat photo opportunity. (For those of you keeping track at home, our trivia team came in 2nd.)
