We were lucky enough to have a Praying Mantis lay her egg case (ootheca) under the eaves, above the guest bedroom……..we would love to see it hatch next year, watch this space !
just starting
warning off a potential threat….this was another female bent on laying in the same place.
a bit more than half way, the foam dries to a very “papery” finish which is like a fan of small sections……We assume an egg is laid in each of these sections ?
Finished..off for a nice cup of tea and chat with a passing male, and perhaps a bite to eat !
