This metal sculpture was created by Michael E. Kmiotek. It is located along a paved path through a wooded area between the Herb Garden and the Bamboo Garden.

From Wikipedia: "A colloquial name for the order is "praying mantises", because of the typical "prayer-like" stance, although the term is often mis-spelled as "preying mantis" since mantises are notoriously predatory."

Type of insect: Praying Mantis
