We have both assassin bugs and praying mantis around our house during years where the temps and the moisture levels are moderate.

The very first tree frog I saw irl. I didn't even know we had them around here .

Used something called "tilt-shift Photoshop" on this picture of the road I live on. You can only see a little bit of the grass in my yard here. I grew up in this neighborhood so I've walked up and down this hill a million times.
