It turned out to be a little tiny praying mantis. So odd.

The Hummingbird is my most beloved bird, and I love them for so many reasons. They are amazing and beautiful. I'm so glad I found someone who cherishes them as much as I do. Thank you for following Red Rose Alley, and I will be sure to visit you again. Be sure to keep a look out for my Hummingbird post which will probably be in a week or so.
