I may be European but I was born here

The European Mantis is a master of camouflage. The plant in the photo (Japanese stilt grass) has the almost exact shade of green as the mantis. This gives the mantis an edge on hunting it's prey. Mantis's are phenomenal stealth and ambush predators. Enjoy my photos

I'm not nutty!

The White Breasted Nuthatch is a small woodpecker commonly seen at bird feeders all year long. I recognise it by the crown symbol on it's head. It also has blue-grey wing feathers and a white head and breast it's beak is 3/4 of an in long. We enjoying seeing them at our bird feeders.
