Mantis and his imaginary friend

Mr. Praying Mantis sat in this one spot on our window for three days.  It looks like he's talking to his reflection.


Then, after three days without moving, he was gone...probably eaten by a bird.

Why does the floor move?

Yes, this actually happened.  I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and I discovered this...

 



These are TERMITES!!!!  During the first big rains they flee their underground homes and seek shelter in the warmth and light.  They shed their wings, reproduce, and die.  That's it.
