Do You See the Beauty?
Common Buckeye (Junonia coenia)
Everyone is quickly drawn to the beauty of this colorful butterfly of the brushfoot group, but did you notice it had suffered some damage to it's left wing? Did you notice the beautiful round shapes on the wings? Did you notice the orange bars outlined in black on the fore wings? Did you notice the fuzzy, hairy appearance of the caterpillars body? Did you notice the beauty of the flower it rests on? Did you notice that more flowers are getting ready to burst open?
"Beauty in things exists in the mind which comtemplates them."
David Hume (1711-1776): Scottish philosopher and historian.
