With a clear sky and "just" moderately strong winds that allowed me to go outside with a headband and temperatures reaching 21°C at 1 PM, I wanted to try my luck with P. edusa again, which was discovered a day prior.

While failing to re-discover P. edusa, I came across my very first European mantis (Mantis religiosa) that also happened to be a male not pleased by my arrival in his new territory in Zone II. Some dragonflies were seen in the distance and one grey-ish damselfly near Zone II's junction escaped before I could manage to get closer to it.
Now with I. lathonia, P. rapae and V. atalanta reaching their respective peaks, only a few weeks remain of this year's observation season.
