Default Working in the yard today led me to a few surprises!
Clipping my lily's brought me to the baby praying manthis...he was
a fast bugger and I only got one shot of him before he jumped to attack me!

(It's right above the center area where I clipped the stalk)

Also had a mockingbird driving the cats and I nuts everytime we went out back, so I finally investigated and found these...(there are 4 total)

baby birds

Last 2 are from 2 of our ponds...

Mockingbird's are not the friendliest....especially when babies are involved, at least you know why they are driving you crazy. Good capture.
