I got a look at the undercarriage of this praying mantis while it nommed on a butterfly. While most of its parts were green or golden brown, its powerful forelegs were anchored to its body with wrinkled gray things that resembled the movable casings around a car's gear shift.
Always something new to discover in the garden!
