Insects of Summer Retrospective VI

Tachinide Fly

These flies might be larger than a horse fly.  They appear to like nectar.

Chinese Mantis

I saw more of these this year than in any previous year.  I am unsure whether it is because I have become more aware or because there were more of them.

Chinese Mantis Stalking a Grass Hopper

I think this image puts forth the camouflage characteristics of the Chinese Mantis.  I wanted to see one catch prey but did not capture that activity this year.
