Praying Mantis



This is a young mantis that was on the hunt for tasty bugs under our porch light one night. Little did he realize, there were six adult Turkish Geckos closing in from all sides.
The hunter had become the hunted.

When I came out to take his picture I busted up the raiding party, but they probably came back for him after I left.
A full-grown mantis could have put up a good fight, but this one was on the small side.
