There’s a giant praying mantis outside of Hamilton City Hall

Don’t worry, Hamilton: a massive, green space creature has not arrived in town to wreak havoc on residents.

Quite the opposite, in fact. The city has just erected a massive and beautiful floral sculpture of a praying mantis outside of Hamilton City Hall.

The eye-catching green giant, officially dubbed ‘Mickey Mantis,’ has been carefully constructed out of around 1,300 individual plants by the city’s horticulture team.

Mickey will be a temporary ambassador of sorts for Hamilton and city hall throughout the summer, standing at a towering 14 feet and readily commanding attention for passersby on Main Street.

Whether or not Mickey will magically spring to life one day  remains to be seen – hey, in 2021 it’s not so far-fetched – but for now, he remains firmly, thankfully affixed to his spot ready to pose for countless summer photo ops.

Go meet Mickey Mantis outside of Hamilton City Hall!
