Thanks for the info. This is the only image and I took this photo with my phone so not much detail.

Hi Ronald, this is a juvenile mantis. I can't say 100% but this reminds me a lot of a Chinese Mantis (Tenodera sinensis) nymph.

I can't really tell from the image, but Chinese Mantids have stripes on their faces. Do you have any other views?
