Orchid Mantis
Every time these come up I feel the need to reiterate what we only recently discovered about them, which is that they don’t just hide and blend in to a real flower hoping prey won’t notice them, no, something about them is MORE attractive to bees and flies than an actual flower. The orchid mantis is outright pretending to be a BETTER flower and LURING insects to itself.
Jessie Arms Botke (1883-1971) – White peacock with hollyhocks and poppies, oil on canvas, 76,2 x 63,5 cm. 1926.
