Spotted Salamander

The spotted salamander can be identified by its robust black and grey body with yellow spots. This species of salamander is carnivorous from birth as it eats aquatic insects from its larval stage, and then eats insects and other invertebrates when they reach maturity.

Purple punch and Indiana bubblegum

Those are indeed some beautiful pictures, and some pretty colas and bugs, I currently reside in the east but really miss the west. I have a mantis who has adopted one of my plants as a hunting ground and he has shed his outer shell three times already, Each time the shell is bigger and a different color the last one was pink and yellow but when i saw the mantis the other day he was all green, do you know if mantis are able to alter their color at will? or if the pigment in their shell changes color when it is shed?

I wish i knew more but am not a mantis specialist...just find them very impressive, strange and beautiful.
And effective as a predator.
I found all kind of shells, mainly grasshopper, but not from mantis yet, need to keep my eyes open !
I think the right word is exoskeleton.

Sudden summer storm killed 2 little plants but was beautiful to see.
Looks black and white but is color pic.

 

[Poekie]

The 2 that broke and died in the storm were 2 from the 5 Triangle Grape Cake#8 x Mad Martigan from @Trustfall that i planted a bit late in the season, the stems werent strong yet.
They were the 2 tallest ones and i think they may have been males (usually a bit taller), the 3 remaining are all female so its not a problem at all.
Very glad to try some of Trustfalls elite genetics.
