Captured on 03rd March, 2024, this delicate orange and black butterfly adds a vibrant touch to the dense green foliage of the California Academy of Sciences Rainforest. The butterfly rests on a leaf of a geranium, perfectly embodying the thriving biodiversity in this collection0. An almost hidden bee sets the stage for the silently ongoing symbiosis. Please note: the butterfly, the shy star of this photo, was tagged with only 57% confidence, making this sighting even more magical and rare.
