Butterflies visiting a flower
The larger butterfly holds its wings open while perched on a branchlike stem with leaves and a daisy-shaped flower. A second, smaller butterfly appears above and to the side. Together, the two insects and the flowering plant form a simple scene centered on butterfly activity around blossoms.
Interesting facts about butterflies and flowers
Butterflies often land on flowers to drink nectar through a long feeding tube called a proboscis. As they move between blossoms, grains of pollen can cling to their bodies, so some species contribute to pollination. An open-winged butterfly may be warming its flight muscles in sunlight or pausing between flights.
