I guess hatched. Anyway, it was a windy day so it was hard to get a good shot, plus they're so small!

I can't wait until they "hatch"! Our yard has an aphid problem and tons of earwigs. I tried ladybugs, but they wouldn't stay, so I'll try this and see what happens. I hope we get to see the baby mantises! I hung one in the dogwood tree (which was covered in aphids last year) and one in one of our rhododendron bushes (also infested).<br /><br /><img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_09/mantis2.jpg" alt="egg case"><br />More photos to come! urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:137009 2009-06-18T02:50:26Z 2009-06-25T06:07:38Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_09/seals1.jpg" alt="Seals at the Oregon Zoo"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_09/seals5.jpg" alt="Seals at the Oregon Zoo"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_09/seals8.jpg" alt="Seals at the Oregon Zoo"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_09/seals7.jpg" alt="Seals at the Oregon Zoo"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:136750 2009-04-16T17:44:31Z 2009-04-16T17:44:31Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/april_09/cheep.jpg" alt="cheep"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/april_09/cheepcheep.jpg" alt="cheep cheep"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:134147 2008-06-10T02:14:15Z 2008-06-10T02:14:15Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_08/allium.jpg" alt="allium"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:134126 2008-06-10T02:13:16Z 2008-06-10T02:13:16Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_08/hens_or_chicks.jpg" alt="hens &amp; chicks"><br />Maybe just chicks - or are these the hens? urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:133781 2008-06-10T02:09:37Z 2008-06-10T02:09:37Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_08/rhodys.jpg" alt="rhododendrons"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:133459 2008-06-10T02:07:53Z 2008-06-10T02:07:53Z Sugarland - Stay <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/june_08/suculants.jpg" alt="succulents"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:133143 2008-05-30T05:27:00Z 2008-05-30T05:27:00Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/may_08/flower3.jpg"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:132901 2008-05-30T05:20:45Z 2008-06-10T02:10:37Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/may_08/tulip.jpg" alt="tulip"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:132745 2008-05-30T05:08:09Z 2008-06-10T02:11:04Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/may_08/flower2.jpg"> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gurlskout:132606 2008-05-29T04:50:50Z 2008-06-10T02:11:23Z <img src="http://www.gurlskout.com/blog/may_08/columbine.jpg" alt="Columbine"><br />Finally!
