I start with some mountain roses below for all mothers today!

May you have a special day and we honor you!
And this is also a memory to all those that have lost their mothers or that have never had a mother. We know that motherhood is not an easy job, and mothers please know that you are the most important being in the early life of your child. You perform a very special job by shaping tomorrow's generation. And we admire all the hours that you spend just being a loving mother. All praises to you.

This white rose is for all of those that have never had a mother.
You are all in our prayers.

Now to get back to the first photo! I guess by now you know what this is?

Yes! You have guessed correctly. It is indeed a Praying Mantis.

Indeed a big Praying Mantis, and she must have eaten her boyfriend by this stage.
Certainly looks like a very cheeky woman!

Here we have a little Single-collared Sunbird!

Just a lovely little flower to make your day!

How can I end this without the customary squirrel in action?

We've heard many stories today about mother's day, and we know that it means so much to many mothers out there.
But please spare a thought for those out there that have never had a mother. We work with many orphans and we always try our best to show them genuine love and companionship.
Then we have those that cannot have children, and our hearts go out to them.
Life is what it is, and we all have to cope as best we can.
Love and kindness cost nothing, and are wonderful traits to have.
Together we can make this world a better place!

I love rose, it show the power of love....happy mother's day

What beautiful wishes to the Mothers so sweet and you have surely the eye for capturing amazing beauty that first shot is amazing

Thank you JJ and I was also surprised to see its lovely head.
Blessings!

I bet and what a cool shot you got of it pretty amazing to see

Beautiful pictures. The first picture scared me and I thought its a pink snake's face and came to find out here what it actually is that I got scared seeing in post promo 😁😁
Praying Mantis, had no idea about its existence so I am good with my pink snake imagination too :)

Hahaha a pink snake? Never seen a pink snake, but you do indeed have a wonderful imagination.
Blessings and thank you!

Deeper you look, more colors start to emerge.

Thank you and so true my friend!
Blessings!

Wow, awesome shots. Due to the climate change we can see these Praying Mantis here too now in the southern part of Germany.

Thank you Sir Norbert, the changes in the climates are wreaking havoc in the animal world and we also now find strangers appearing in the animal kingdom down here.
I suppose they all travel after food.
Glad that you can also now see the Praying Mantis.
Blessings!

@papilloncharity I am out of words for all your photography because everything looks very beautiful and very beautiful ... all great guesses...😍

A great thank you my friend!
Have a blessed day!

Beauty in every frame! Even a mantis.
And very touching and important words.

Mountain roses - never seen such flowers. It's are wonderful!

Thank you Lady Elena and the mountain roses are indeed beautiful.
I always try for a bit of tenderness in my posts.
Blessings!
