    What a lovely idea! Mantises are my favorites!
    Pink ones in high heels! YaY!
    So far both the shoecats and shoedogs are in high heels!!
    ( What? There are shoes that do not have high heels?
    Impossible!!!! LOL!!! some more!)
    Thank you so much Foxflower! Jeannie
    You are so welcome ;-) I can't wait to see what you come up with. 8-)

    Thanks Foxflower!
    Those are wonderful pictures!
    Isn't it amazing the variety of shapes and colors the mantises have! They are the largest inscect. The Goliath beetle and some spiders are large too.
    I love the little ducky!

    We have 2 ducks and I LOVE them forever!!! We've had them since they were about the size of your lil guy, maybe a week or two younger-they grow SO UNBELIEVABLY quickly!!

    How pretty! Ours is an Indian Runner duck that was a cooperative hatch---duck, hen and incubator! It's father is "blue" and it's mother is crested yellow and white. We can't wait to see what gender it is, what color, and if it has a crest! They are such fun. :thumbup:
