haha no, I'm sieving a pile of dirt to remove the weeds and the gloves have gotten really crusty ^^
how big is that hand?!
five eights of a foot
ok, phew haha
it looks fairly gigantic in the photo
Wowza! All our mantids this year were way smaller than that
They come in all sizes and colors yes! It might be that the variety living in my area (Southwestern Germany) - mantis religiosa - is slightly bigger than average.
I love them so much, it's always a wonderful moment when I spot one, and it was the first time I could hold one.
Impressive beast
What a cutie
