The sky may be orange with smoke, but it’s not all gloom in the garden. The Preying Mantis egg I have been watching for months has finally hatched! BABY MANTIS EVERYWHERE!! To me they are just about the cutest bug you could have in a garden. I absolutely love when I get too close to one and they whipped their head towards you and give you a mean mug. That stare can almost make you think they could take you in a bug battle. The little fellas have quite a reach. With this great news I am inspired to do a little work in the garden. I have a few herbs that need planting quick. Apparently they don’t like living in the garage under the bumper of the car. WHO KNEW??
