It seems to have that, "I've heard about you," look in its eyes and what a great background, or at least I think so. This one, the mantis, does seem to have a degree of personality about it, albeit one with evil intent. Laughing

I thought he might be looking at his/her reflection in the lens; but it does appear that his gaze is fixed on Sue.

It reminds of the 'cat' in Shrek II.
