On the hunt

I found this Mantis on the purple salvia this morning.  I kept going out to check on it to see if it had caught anything and when I went out after lunch it had disappeared.  Poof!  completely disappeared.  Hey ho.   Easy come easy go.

Not much else to report today:  more work on the external window/door where I found the rot after another trip to the hardware store to get the rot fixing kit and a few other random buys.  Then, chat chat chat with a couple of friends and then it rained.  Or more likely it sprinkled.
