They say "a picture is worth a thousand words." This one deserves thousands in praise. 👏 It's the perfect capture of a perfect moment in time. Look at the expressions, the movement, the framing... Bravo! Bravo!!

The Blue Achilles Morpho 🦋, the ultimate chameleon: The reverse side of these magnificent iridescent blue wings is a warning to predators, signaled by ugly brown colours & danger 👀👀

Lord Byron would have liked a rose like this: young, romantic, soft, dewy, but dramatic & w sharp edges. (Poor Caro Lamb.) To quote Gaga, "bad romance."

There are only maybe 5 photos of me as an adult and/or showing my face that I like.
One of them, per the OneDrive message just sent to me, was apparently taken on this day, June 16th, back in 2017: Me with my soul dog, Zola. It feels like several lifetimes ago.

Blue Morpho Butterfly

1865
A Blue Jay and a male Baltimore Oriole battle in a Cottonwood tree. The Blue Jay looks to have the upper hand (upper wing?) here, but was eventually chased off by the Baltimore Oriole.
