We have been enjoying a visitor for the last week on a blooming Plumeria plant happily enjoying the monsoon moisture from the haven protection of the covered porch. She hangs upside down beneath the flowers and her wingtips are ruffled, mimicking the plumeria leaves. But the fascinating detail Nichole noticed was that her legs have taken on the pinkish hue of the flower stems: she blends in. Nature is awesome!
We wondered what would happen when it rained so we looked. She was sheltered under one of the big Plumeria leaves. Silly insect.
