The not so nice side of Nature.

As you'd know, the Buddleja is nicknamed the Butterfly bush. Well, one of my favorite insects, the Praying Mantis, knows all about that and for the past 2 days has been seen hanging out under this flower, devouring butterflies. I guess the guy has to eat but the first time I saw him he didn't have to wave the remains of the wings at me like he did. Gross!
Funny, he didn't seem to put on weight between the first and second butterfly, wish I knew his secret. Eat butterflies? They aren't fattening?
