Wow...those are just beautiful. These pictures have inspired me to go to the local Bug Fest this weekend. Mantids have always been my favorite insect.

Cool site! Just an FYI, the mantis "Species unidentified" pic above is the European Mantis (Mantis Religiosa). You can tell by the black and white "eye" in it's arm-pits.

Cheers!
