Butterfly Gymnastics in the Barrens

It's Olympics time, even in the Scotia Barrens, and this female butterfly was going for the gold. First was the leap! And then the full-on flitter, before this tiger swallowtail mounted the pink bloom with style and grace, and began nectaring, full-throttle. Oh, look at those moves! What scores WILL the judges award this beauty? We're looking at D-scores (difficulty) and E-scores (execution) here, folks! The pressure is mounting! Go, baby, go!

Our soundtrack song: Queen and David Bowie, with Under Pressure.

P.S. Let's consider this shot a companion piece to this one.
