Purple Praying Mantis
English Name ??? Purple Praying Mantis ??? Afrikaans Name Hottentotsgot of Bidsprinkaan??? Photographer Tanya Carmine Location House 2, Cons Camp Elna’s NotesThe Wolfenden kids found this beautiful Praying Mantis in their garden a few days ago. Can anyone tell us more about it? I've searched the internet but cannot seem to find anything like it.
My name is Elna Louw and I live in the middle of the African bush on a copper mine site in Lumwana, Zambia. My husband Pierre is the Finance Director for the project. We are South African and have been expating since 2000. Over the past 9 years we have lived in Tanzania, Australia and now Zambia. Before we left SA I was employed by Ernst & Young Johannesburg as a Project Manager. I loved my job but being out here in the middle of nowhere (or is it the centre of the universe) is fantastic. This blog is about my life here.
