Nuala and Mantis

Nuala seems to be on good terms with this large mantis, who does not appear to be threatened. Mantises can and do hiss, bite, or both when threatened or provoked. The gardeners encountered several large mantises in both Bonnefont and Trie gardens last summer. Photograph by Barbara Bell
