Insect

Praying Mantis Exoskeleton
According to WikiAnswers: "Mantises will shed their skins (exoskeleton) through out their lives...On average, they shed 7 times. You will see that they will not eat as much and also slow down 2-3 days before they shed. Then they will hang upside down and wiggle out of their shells. You will be surprised in the size difference!"

Interesting shot and comment about insects. We have lots of bees this year and I've noticed a few more butterflies. Butterflies have been almost non-existent here.
