A follow-up to sighting 4204615 of a praying mantis egg sack, originally sighted by Marcus Leach. These images show a tiny wasp working its way around the egg sack. Its size can be gauged by the egg sack and plant.

Hi Tim
Thanks for this and sighting 4206801. I like the way you follow up on things you see.

Thanks Michael. It's stating the obvious, but I have the view that tracking a particular sighting over time (where it's possible to do so) may provide additional information for CNM's experts, that isn't apparent from a single sighting, and should be encouraged. (The ex-engineer in me speaking.....)
