A praying mantis perches on a tan post amidst sunny gravel and greenery.
A praying mantis is seen up close at an angle from slightly above. The mantis is a cream color with gray-brown stripes across its legs and body. It has a wide, heart shaped head looking towards the wood post it is attached to, long forelegs, and long, skinny front hands in a peach color with brown stripes. It has a set of long, skinny legs to the sides and back legs that reach backward. Both sets of wings are folded into the body and the thick back tail area. The post the little guy is on is a tan shade and slants to the right at the top, where a wood knot is seen in the top right corner of the image. The background of the mantis is a gray gravel ground with a large green sprout of grass on the left edge of the image. The background shows sun rays coming through an unseen tree, creating small spots of light.
