Young praying mantis - AKA the basil hitchiker

I made almost 2 quarts (2L) of basil pesto yesterday. When I brought in the basil from the garden' I noticed a cute little hitch hiker, only about 1.5" (4cm) long. I persuaded the little lady to pose on a flower seed head on the kitchen table, and here is one of her portraits.
