I have been seeing these a lot lately in Sacramento... actually saw one flying the other night... not a very graceful flyer...

Probably the Chinese Mantid, more and more common all the time. What's he eating?

He's eating a common small butterfly that we have in Sacramento. I had another one, same color earlier, that I was not able to photograph, that had wings longer than it's body, unlike this guy, whose abdomen is longer than it's wings.
