PREY-ing Mantis...that's what they DO everyday, anything they can catch. I've seen them station themselves at night next to a bright deck light...catching prey after prey! But finding the sweet little hummingbird in one's clutches...that was IT for me. No more Ms. Nice to PM here!

Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
