I took these pictures 10 days ago. The Praying Mantis is on the leaves of my Dwarf Cavendish, it seems to camo in pretty well.

Nice pic! I love praying mantis. I always see them favoring a different plant in my yard every summer (last year it was my mandevilla, the year before it was one of my hibiscus). They do a good job eating up a lot of common garden pests and make for great pictures if you can see them!
