中興新村札記 Chunghsing New Village, Nantou, Taiwan
16 November 2017
That night I went to a Family 24hr store for buying beverages. Then, I found a green and tail rolled mantis on the front reflector when I took my bicycle. I had never seen such species of mantis before. I appreciated its jade green and perfect shape. So I kept it on the reflector instead of driving it away. I rode my bike, not so fast, to see if it would fly off by itself. Surprisingly, it remained there and went back home with me. I left it in my garage, thought it might go into the garden for hunting.
On the next morning, I was going to the office, I saw it again, still on the front reflector. This time, I gently kept it from my bicycle with a dead leave. felt like it was a little bit weak, maybe it had nothing overnight, no energy. I put it on the grass, wish it had found its way out.
