I would tend to agree that, it's a Chinese Mantis. I was surprised when it caught and devoured the bumble bee. I have seen the foam nests of some thing but no mantis's other than that one I photographed. I have seen the random very small mantis but nothing of any size until I just happened to photograph this one.
Thanks for the look and ID.
