Federico Garcia Lorca - our garden Praying Mantis! Lives a romantic, violent life - keeping our roses beautifully clean of aphids and a watch on us as we potter around. Almost contemplative in his devotion to aphid cleanliness, Federico knows he is le boss des Mantides, for he is at the top of his game - having probably eaten all his competitors. Caught here, briefly, claiming the Lilac bush as his/hers? (Sorry, couldn't tell which.) We are proud of our Federico.
Goodbye

Nurse Mary was spot on. Around 9:40, Thursday, August 20, Killian quietly
slipped away. We knew and didn’t know it was coming. We were just hanging
out wit...

Hi Brian!
ReplyDeleteFederico is indeed one handsome fellow. I'm such a city girl, I thought Praying Manitses (sp?) could only be found in the tropics. I wonder if we have them here in France? Probably not where I live (apartment in Paris), though my neighbour's bug-nibbled-into-swiss-cheese rosebush sure could use them.
Have a good day, Brian!

Frederica is probably more accurate based on the size of that thing. The girls are bigger I believe, in the mantid world. I got here by way of the Times article. I really enjoyed it. I wonder where you might be today if you were uninsured or if we had socialized medicine?
ReplyDeleteWe must have Frederico's twin at our house. I guess it is a good thing there are hundreds of miles (if not thousands) between them. I would hate for either of them to have to eat the other out of turf wars. "This continent ain't big enough for the two of us buster. . . "
ReplyDeleteIf you want to see a picture of Frederico's bro he is one our son Ryan's c/b site photos. http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/ryanpatrick/photos
Perhaps you can give us a name for him ?
Thank you for sharing your wild ride through this crazy life. Our son is also on a similar roller coaster. Thank God for strong hands to hold on through the turns and loops.
All our best to one incredibly courageous couple.
Yours, Amy Patrick
