Chinese Mantis - Tenodera sinensis

This poor soul’s right eye was damaged somewhere along in its life. You can see how it is dark. A close-up revealed a large cut in it.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Wonderful detail. I bet that eye injury must be a factor
in its hunting ability.

What a stunning shot this is, detail is remarkable and the composition is impeccable. But very sad to hear that this poor thing has suffered some damage. V
