Found in the GARDEN II

#1 Post by exile »

I have opened a new topic because all attemts to find the original have failed

Many, (too) many moons ago; I promised to get a photo of a Praying Mantis egg sack - or better called by the biologists a ootheca.

Since then I have found the egg sacks and have had no camera, or have had a camera and no egg sacks to see. In the open they do seem to be somewhat transitory. I have now found one protected in the inside structure of the greenhouse door frame.

As I suggested all those months ago, it looks a bit like a trilobite.
