Three inch mantis. Apparently they get horse worms. I learned that you gently place their behind in water and the worm will come out. Well nothing came out but he or she did shake and reveal an incredible pink colour under its wings. This one didn't bite me. Yes they do bite!

I hand raised this orphaned Eastern Rosella. She has now been successfully released and is free in the high country of North East Victoria, Australia. Note the marking on her chest? Do you see a cross or a bird? I think she is alive and doing well out there somewhere. You stole my heart Rosie. ❣️
