It's a Praying Mantis. We used to play with them as kids. They're one of the top predators in the insect world I believe....

That is true, WS. The whole time I was sitting there trying not to move I kept thinking he waas going to attack me, lol.

Wait a sec..you played with them? Don't they bite or something??

Heck yes! We played with all the animals and insects. If we could catch it, we would keep it as a pet or play with it.....

You sure didn't want to let those front legs latch onto your finger!

It was a heck of a lot of fun to put them into my sisters hair!!!

LOL!

LOL! You're so mean . Sounds a bit like my Aunt Polly when she'd throw garden snakes at her sisters.
