Did you know that Praying Mantis eyses changed colour at night - I didn’t realise this until a couple of days ago. I photographed this Mantis at night on one of our potted fig plants, and the red eyes were very noticable.

In daylight I noticed what looked like the same mantis on the same potted plant, but the eyes were green and pink. I took a couple of photos and sure enough the eyes were much paler in daylight. After a bit of searching on the web, I found other references to mantis eyes changing colour in low light. I’m not sure if all species do this or just certain species?
