The Raindrop Nymph

I was delighted to discover this tiny praying mantis nymph on the curry plant. It is one of the lot that hatched on my kitchen windowsill 13 days ago. My hopes for their survival was pretty low, but this little fellow has survived some unpleasant weather- heat, gales and rain.

More raindrops on his head in full screen.

I have filled all the gaps in my journal. If you are interested you can see the thumbnails on my profile page, three pages of them.
