I almost drank a Praying Mantis......

While I was grilling dinner this evening I picked up a Hitch hiker. I didn't realize it till I was in the bathroom and looked in the mirror and saw a small  white praying  mantis. It escaped me and I didn't know where it went till I went to drink from my glass of grapefruit soda and found the little white mantis floating in the liquid. I emptied the glass in the sink and the mantis was still alive. I offered the mantis a ride with a sponge and took it outside and  I put it on one of my hanging plants. I love praying mantis.....they are so animated and such good hunters.
