a good friend of mine recently gifted me with this very unique and beautiful creation from nature.
have you ever seen such a thing?! do you have any idea what it is?!
i suppose the title of this blogpost gives it away 🙂
this is a praying mantis egg case!!!
as many of you may know about me, i am somewhat obsessed with the praying mantis. i had never seen an egg case before, but i was completely thrilled when this showed up in my life! {i think i even cried a little}
and so of course, i had to take some {perhaps too many?!} pictures!
i think the details are just so mesmerizing and are something to behold and appreciate!
and i think it’s extra cool how the intricate details seem to form a heart ❤
i have been keeping the egg case safe and monitoring it on my patio for the time being… but stay tuned because i’m about to give it a new home! 🙂
