Maybe....

Let's hope so! We have a flat one down here that exactly matches the bark of our oaks. If they hold still on the tree trunk they just disappear.
That preying mantis pic is awesome! They are interesting creatures. I love them. Even though anything small and bug like creeps me out. =D Awesome though! Luvs Ya!
Tawny
I had one of those in my house this morning. Ugh!!!!
Great pic!!!
I guess they're definitely good for your garden...eat lots of bugs 'n stuff. I found one last summer under the motor cover of on of our irrigation wheel lines. The silly thing just held on while I moved the line and was still there when I put the cover back on the motor!
Nicely done photo!
I hope so-for you!
Very nice photo! Is it like a Lucky Bug? :)
Very cool, the Chinese believe they do, as do I. Great pic!
Wow, that's a cool picture.
Not for their husbands.
Ick.
FC, never saw the flat kind, but we seem to have more and more of these every summer. I am always kinda, sorta delighted by them
Tawny, they are creepy but cool to me anyhow. thanks and I love you too
Flo, we have had them indoors a time or two also...not this time of year though. lol thanks
gtyup, they are bold as brass aren't they! I love to see them around. And thanks!
Tipper, thanks, me too
Far Side, thanks I guess in some cultures they are considered lucky...I admit that I posted this one because I couldn't find the pic I took this summer of my big draft horse shoe out by the herb garden and it is under snow now.
Ed, thanks, I knew somebody found them lucky....and I always figure I am lucky to find them
Laurie, thank you
Steve, good point. Good not to be married to one. lol
i always feel lucky to see one. does that count? they're just so cool! i like it when they turn their heads to look at you.
I didn't post a Sunday Still this time, but decided to look at everyone else's. Until I read the comments, I was wondering how you found that thing in the dead of winter! That's a good pic, green eyes and all! Another one of those that makes you wish for summer!
Neat photo! The only adult insect that I have seen lately was another mosquito that I found in the barn.
Meanwhile, I was thinking of you as I used your dressing recipe to make the turkey dressing for our Christmas dinner. I was very pleased with the result. I do like recipes that leave one free to play a bit. Thanks again!!!
Ericka, same here. They are very personable insects and seem much smarter than they can possibly actually be.
Heather, thank you so much. I stink at close ups like that, but it was such a cool critter that I posted it anyhow. Wish I could have found the one of the horseshoe though. It is under feet of snow now so...
OW, thank you! Not much in the line of insect life here either and the only flowers are indoors on geraniums and Christmas cacti
I am so tickled that you used and enjoyed the stuffing recipe, which originated with my mom and passed through some metamorphosis here at the farm. Glad it turned out well for you!
