A Wee Visitor

Paweł Kadysz It’s amazing what nature can create.

Dana Lightman Totally cool.

Jaydee This is an EMPUSA PENNATA
It is a member of the MANTIS family
This is a very young juvenile without wings at this stage of development.
Adults lose the grey/brown colour and turn either pink or green ( or a mixture of both).
Adults develop wings which cover the entire abdomen which by this stage has straightened out.
They are only found in Southern Europe- Portugal,Spain, France and Italy.

vera I love the position on your finger! It seems to tell you something! It also remembers me this one: "Giant stick insect"
