You certainly did, Bruce, and welcome to closeup! Looks like he's also content to perch on your finger. Good shots!

Thanks Donna.
I was answering the door and noticed it on the glass. Lucky it stayed long enough for me to get my camera and take a few memories.

Thanks Dook
It's the smallest praying mantis that I have ever seen - about 1" long.

As it was walking around, I put my finger up beneath him to show his size. He didn't move away from it as I expected, just kept moving in the same direction and climbed up on my finger when he got there.
Boy! was I surprised and happy.

Thanks sailorsmom,
I obviously took several more pictures and it was hard to choose the ones I wanted to post.
