Our 'humble' visitor decided to grace us with its presence in our home. So, we decided to learn about the praying mantis. We learned that the praying mantis is great at camouflage - it blends in to look like other things around it (sticks, leaves, grass, dead leaves, flowers). They eat other insects like grasshoppers and spiders, even lizards and mice. They only live to be one year old! It has 5 eyes! Two big ones and 3 small ones. They can turn their head 180 degrees and can see their prey 60 feet away!
