Today was very tiring, I did a lot of work in the garden such as fertilizing chili plants, cleaning weeds, and harvesting palm fruit, and the work was finished in the afternoon. When I wanted to go home suddenly I managed to find a mantis grasshopper perched on wild leaves, this grasshopper was still small and its color still looked so beautiful, which was still orange. According to the information I know about this mantis grasshopper, when it is still small, its color will be black, when it is a teenager, this grasshopper will change color to orange, and when it is old, this grasshopper will change color to green, but there are also brown mantis grasshoppers but I very rarely find them.

The mantis that I found was very wild, I even had a hard time taking a picture of it. It kept moving and moving to other leaves, but I kept trying to take a picture of it. In the end, I only managed to take three pictures, but that was enough to make me feel satisfied.
