I haven't gone to bed yet... I was randomly trawling friendsfriends when I came upon a picture of Dominic Monaghan and a leaf mantis. It reminded me somewhat of a picture of myself.



Here's Dominic Monaghan with his pet leaf mantis Gizmo (borrowed from kiltsandlollies journal).




And here's me looking decidedly less pretty with a random grasshopper that jumped on my specs while I was somewhere in New Zealand earlier this year. Thanks to my friend A for the lovely photography.



Aren't you all glad I shared that with you...

Kind of like a parrot but with more legs and antennae and less feathers

Like a really strange pirate. Or a crazy one, perhaps.

That's a gorgeous mantis in the top picture, btw -- I don't think I've ever seen one quite that color before.
