Default Look what's lurking in my plants!

I've been finding several insect predators using my orchids as hunting grounds lately.

Here's a praying mantis hanging out in one of my phals. He blended right in with the stem, so I almost missed him!


And here's an assassin bug hiding in my ascocenda bloom. He's been there for weeks, guarding the buds and blooms, and always has a fly in his mouth when I spot him.


Anyone else find any hidden beauties protecting your orchids lately?
