A Praying Mantis

As I was heading into work this morning, I looked to the side of the door and saw something unusual.

 As I looked closer, I noticed that it was a praying mantis.  I don't ever remember seeing one of these in person before, so I dropped of my stuff at my desk and grabbed my camera to get some pictures.

 He wasn't in the easiest position to get some pictures, but I managed.  Unfortunately, I couldn't get the angle looking at the front.

But I came pretty close with this shot.
