I found these two praying mantises at the Mima Mound Nature Area south of Olympia, Washington. I’m not an expert on insects so can’t say if these are both the same species or etc. But they are interesting little critters. They are cannabalistic, though.

Wow – those are great captures, Allan.
Thanks, Lynette. I took them back when it was easier for me to get down on the ground … or rather easier to get back up from the ground! (Ha)
I hear you!
