Six legged critters

For some reason, six legged creatures don't worry me nearly as much as the eight legged types.

Well.. that might not be true... I mean cockroaches pretty much gross me out,

but these little guys were fun and interesting to shoot.

Initially, I was just trying to get a better shot of the tiny little flowers,
but then this guy crawled over the edge and decided to pose for the camera.
Thank you, kind sir.

We found this little guy in my house.  

I believe that it's a baby praying mantis.

***edit***
That was just my best guess, but someone who actually knows about these things
said that it probably is not. 
Hmmmm... so now I'm wondering what this little guy was.

He was so incredibly tiny, but he tried hard to look fierce.
