  1. At Lesbos, praying mantis eats locust.

    1. Excellent photo showing interesting behavior!

      I have 2 small tips:
      - Use "edit details" to find the photo description field. You're currently using a comment for the description. It's not a big deal, but better to put it in the description field.
      - No need to write out most EXIF data, it is automatically detected, see the values above the map. Lens info is not detected though, so that's always interesting :)

      Hope this helps.
