Spider on Strawflower
I'm always delighted to see a Straw Flower (Strawflower), of any colour. Just fascinated by how perfect they often are when I see them. Love their paper or silk-like "petals", though actually the petals aren’t true petals at all, but in fact are modified leaves called bracts, that come in many colours, including yellow, orange, cream, pink, white, and purple.
