Haha!! YES to this thread! I love all these small creature encounters!

Since I live in Ontario, Canada, I don't see a whole lot of small creatures many months of the year, and not SUCH a diverse spectrum during the lively months. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining... I don't have to shake my shoes out for scorpions, or check for poisonous snakes and stuff, which I generally am appreciative of.

Wow to the baby mantis on the peyotes! And to all the other wee ones! As you were, peace and adventure to all creatures.
