"Kamikaze Mantis"
Just as I got home from work this afternoon this crazy Praying Mantis dive bombed my storm door, bounced across my porch, shook a little bit, took a couple of wing flaps and latched onto the bottom branches of this bush in my front yard. He eventually made his way to the top of the bush and five hours later, is still out there hanging around on top. Not sure if this is normal or not!
