Albert has raised a small issue here Mehmet. I noticed earlier that your other postings of this image (on DeviantArt and elsewhere) are dated as early as May 9th this year. The PN data is also about where and when the organism was seen (which can give good seasonal and migratory information) so could you please change the 'spotted on' date to something more accurate? Thanks.
Thanks, Mehmet.
Saw the same pic posted at FB too, so its not a current spotting?
Please consider adding this to the Marvelous Mantids of the World mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1573...
Beautiful spotting!
Beautiful shot. Your DA mantid shots are fantastic also.
thank you dear friends :)
beautiful spotting... keep them coming Mehmet...
That is a fantastic spotting, congratulations and thank you for sharing, MehmetKaraca.
I think this is the first spotting I have seen from Turkey... : )
no, not pets ..albertkang
Very nice picture.
Are they by any chance your pets?
OMG That is fabulous!
Look at the light in this picture!
thank you dear friends
Wow!!!
Awesome spotting!
Fantastic capture! Since you have the scientific name already, you might want to use a different name for the "common name". If there is not a unique common name you could just say: preying mantis
Welcome to Project Noah!
Awesome photo Mehmet!
