I was focused on getting a shot of my butterfly bush for you. This bush is called “Miss Molly.” I had to buy it because Molly is also the name of my sweet daughter-in-law. Then … I realized something was amiss …. and not a twig! A praying mantis was way too close to me!

Shudder.
I know. I know. They’re good insects. But, geez-oh-Pete, they are freaky.
I hope you have a non-freaky day, friends!
