Butterfly
Whilst sneezing continuously today, walking through a corn field, I zoomed in and snapped this photo....
I am really interested in the curly whirly type thing on the top of its head - let me tell you more.....
Butterfly proboscises are slender tubular feeding structures. The proboscis works like a straw through which a butterfly drinks its food (It smells it's food with its feet!). The proboscis is particularly well adapted for reaching into flowers for nectar and for piercing fruit. When a butterfly is not feeding it keeps the proboscis curled up on top of its head.
So, there we are.......some more information to mull over!
