A few more insect images to share

Take a look at a few insect photos I took over the past few days!

This insect was really interesting to look at. I have  no idea what it is, however the second picture shows how close it resembles hay. I know it came out blurry, but that is a small piece of hay next the insect. They look almost identical.

Here is a spider that is actually very, very small. I just zoomedin on him to show more detail.

And last we have a cool looking grasshopper mixedin with some mesquite tree trimmings.

Praying Mantis - Our new found friend

Have a look at what I found today while spraying the organic seaweed, fish emulsion and vinegar fertilizer solution.

This friendly mantis was small, about 1" or so. Crawling along the wall next to our Thompson seedless grape vine.
