Well, they're finally here! All through the long winter I could look out the kitchen window and see the praying mantis egg case and wonder if those little babies would make it through the winter. Now they've hatched out and my flowerbeds are filled with a sprinkling of shy, quick baby praying mantis. It makes me so happy to see them! I like to think my backyard has gotten the Mantis Seal of Approval!

Presvytera Eleni, I only had two (that I noticed) in my garden last year. Even though I also had a hummingbird feeder near the flowers I never lost any birds!
