A totally awesome and unique capture, Julie! I love the detail and preciseness of the walking stick, and the quizzical look of the cat peering at it, is just to special. Great job on this unique capture, as you got the big, "Elvis" F/V on this unique and creative beauty!

What an amazing photo. Talk about perfect timing. I can't help wondering how it ended for the praying mantis. v/f

Don't worry, the praying mantis was unharmed! My cat was behind a glass door.
