These are 3 little moths (Micropterix calthella) on a Buttercup. I studied a few years of Chemistry in my late teens and for some reason when I took this and looked at the moths, they reminded me of how I would draw a Benzene Ring. If you know about chemistry you'll know what I am talking about. Otherwise, enjoy these little fellows on the yellow flower!
...chemistry was never the high point of my education!
ReplyDeleteI didn't do to well either Tom! :-D
DeleteThe flower is very beautiful. Didn't know it's called buttercup.

DeleteThat’s such a lovely observation—nature echoing chemistry! Those tiny moths circling the Buttercup like a Benzene Ring is a beautiful blend of science and serendipity.
ReplyDeleteIt is a good blend of that. Thanks :-D
DeleteI will go look benzene ring up
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine :-D

DeleteI’m not seeing the benzene ring, but I am enjoying the moths.
ReplyDeleteHaha fair enough David. Must just be me. I remember drawing it like this. Some draw it with a circle in middle instead. I was taught with the 3 lines :-D
DeleteEssa é a cadeia alimentar do mundo animal... Embora eu prefira lasanha! rsrsrsrs
ReplyDeleteAbraços 🐾 Tirinhas do Garfield.
Haha yes you would! Thanks :-D
DeleteThey look like they're dancing.
ReplyDeleteThey are dancing to a good tune :-D
DeleteWonderful yellow color!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't doing so well in chemistry!!
Thanks. I wasn't so great either lol :-D
DeleteThey appear to be checking out the marking in the center of the buttercup.
ReplyDeleteThey do Bill. Thanks :-D
DeleteI only studied chemistry at school.
ReplyDeleteI did a few years at University :-D
DeleteCada una dispone de una posición en la flor y procuran no estorbarse.
ReplyDeleteFeliz fin de semana.
They do share well :-D
DeleteWonderful photo 👏
ReplyDeleteThanks Maria :-D
DeleteThat is a good photograph.
