蟷螂 (kamakiri)

Waiting for a bus outside of work today my workmate spotted a praying mantis.

I saw this guy (or a friend or relative) a few weeks ago hanging out on a wall a few metres from this location. They are amazing to watch. It’s also really cute if you hold down one of its back legs and it tries to run away and its leg stretches like an elastic band but maybe don’t do this because it is too cute and I feel sorry for it. I really wanted to hold it but those front arms look a little prickly and I was scared.

praying mantis are my favourite insect!! i love how they move like super stealthy green ninjas…
there is even a samurai jack episode where aku sends giant “mantroids” to kill some scientists, and jack saves them!

about the spider on your last post… funny, i always automatically assume all spiders are female….

oh I haven’t gotten to that episode yet but I am looking forward to it!

about male and female spiders…I think I make guesses with both sexes. For example, recently my roommate has been inviting some friends and there has been little spider parties. I saw one the other morning and in my head it was female. But I didn’t like the looks of her and she was swept outside my window.
