Praying Mantis? - Mantis religiosa

Praying Mantis? - Mantis religiosa
Lory State Park, near Fort Collins, Larimer County, Colorado, USA
I'm not sure if this is a Praying Mantis or some other species.

Yes.
Would help to know the date. This is probably a European mantid, Mantis religiosa, an introduced species that is now widespread.
