Today my sister and I returned to clean the yard, clean the grass, plants and water some ornamental plants in front of the house, on top of one of the ornamental plants I also managed to find a young mantis grasshopper that was still black, its size was still very small and its movements were still very fast so it was very difficult to approach. And now I will tell you some of the uniqueness of this mantis grasshopper, when it was still small this grasshopper was still black lightning, and the color will change as it grows, when it is an adult this grasshopper will change color to green and that is one way this grasshopper survives, namely by camouflage with the leaves around it. For this grasshopper I really like its shape especially the two big hands it has, this grasshopper clearly has a very significant difference from other grasshoppers.

At that time, I only managed to take four pictures of this mantis, and after that,this grasshopper it immediately jumped in another direction, so I immediately lost it.
Okay, everyone, here are some pictures of this mantis here.
