    I had never in my life see a mantis do this! All I wanted to do was put something in the trash bin and it wasn't having any of that.

    Oh my goodness that is crazy looking. Would never mess with that thing. Kudos to you for taking a picture and not nailing it with the newspaper.

    Rare to catch these in anything but a "natural" setting [among leaves, grass, etc.], where they blend in. Here the trash bin sets him off so well we can see every detail... and there's great bokeh due to the distance of the gate [??] behind. Tack sharp and a superb study! Without your explanation this might appear to be an alien of sizable proportion sitting atop its saucer. LOVE it!!
