midnight photoshoot with beautiful alien woman

[VIDEO AND PHOTOS TAKEN: SEPTEMBER 19TH, 2025 | Video and Image IDs: A video and six photos of a brown and green male Chinese mantis with black eyes. In the video it's standing on a human hand, flicking its antennae and sticking its front legs out curiously, before crawling onto the camera. In the photos, the first two show it on some dirty plastic siding, with a more top-down angle; the next three are of it on the same hand as before, one facing the camera with its front legs blurred from motion, while the other two face away and show off its wings; and the last one on a wooden surface, showing it clean its antenna /End IDs.]

Tenodera sinensis, the Chinese mantis! Specifically a male mantis. If you didn't already know this about mantises, their eyes turn black at night to help them see better!

there's more to life than just sitting upside down on a plant all day, Mantis religiosa. like look at that. yeah that's the sky. looks sick right. it's blue, i don't know if you know what that is. there's birds in there and i guess planes also

man fuck you. you don't like anything

Long ears antennae? Can jump really far? Why, it must be the bunny mantis! Also known as the grasshopper mantis, this species is capable of leaping up to 1 m (3 ft)-- over ten times their own body length!-- to catch their prey, which can include large insects, small birds, and frogs, lizards, and occasionally fish.

look at the absolute size of this archimantis!!!!!!!!
