^^^^Cool shot, Ed.

We were at a tour of Whiteside Gardens today. This amazing 5 acre spread is owned by a retired professor of biology from the local university and is a plant and insect lover's dream. Thousand of different plants and trees from around the world and a serious variety of butterflies, moths, mantises, and birds. Here's a mantis chowing down on a moth. Wifey saw this moth that appeared to be stuck on a leaf until we realized the leaf was a mantis. The mantis must have nailed this moth right as we walked up because it was still putting up a mighty struggle. This was shot with my 70-200, but I really wish I had macro. I almost bought one last night and backed out. Alas...
