Mutualism
in this short video we can see a butterfly feeding itself from the flower. this is a fine example of mutualism which describes a ecological interaction between two or more species where each species has a net benefit.
this video was taken at Steve Groff's Cedar Meadow Farm on September 10 at around 2pm.
Mutualism describes a relationship between two species in which each benefits from the other and where there is mutual benefit. It's a common belief that butterflies and flowers work in harmony. Adult butterflies feed on the nectar produced by flowers, snatching it up with a long proboscis resembling a straw. As they move from blossom to bloom while drinking, pollen from one flower adheres to their feet and legs and is carried by them to the next. A feature that is especially noticeable in solar-tracking flowers, which shift their blossoms toward the sun as it moves through the sky, is that they give the butterfly a warm spot to rest in colder climes. most of this process can be seen on the video with the main thing to focus on is how this symbiotic relationship appears on nature.
