An orange butterfly spreads its patterned wings across purple blossoms, glowing against the darkened backdrop. In this still moment, color and detail merge into a fragile harmony of nature.
And so the wandering scorpion fly wandered in the migratory insect trail... in my garden's leaf trail... 😄
This delightful little beauty is a snake mantis Kongobatha diademata. One dorsal shot before it scurried away.

Buzzer the bee found a lovely dandelion to sample the sweetness held within.

"Sweet Dandelion"
Oh' poorly weed I need,
Oh' lovely flower of mine,
Oh' dreamy nectar so devine,
Oh' sweet little dandelion.
Original poetry by; Buzzer the bee 🐝

Dandelion leaves can be eaten raw or cooked.
They are full of vitamins, A, C, K, and K, also iron, calcium and potassium.
The roots can be used for tea or coffee, personally I won't be trying this.
The flowers also can be eaten raw or baked, I won't be trying that method either. 😂
No wonder the insects like these flowers, they know what's good for them. 🐝
