Their senses are extremely sharp, the slightest movement gets noticed, Nice work for sure. #11822174Joanna Kovalcsik July 31, 2020
Terry and Ron, thank you for your kind words. Yes, these creatures are keenly aware of their surroundings. Ron, I have never forgotten your story about one reaching back to grab your hand as you picked it up. I was so glad you told me... your warning protected me when soon after I had the chance to photograph a mantis in my garden. #11822280Ron Livingston July 31, 2020 1

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
