Butterflies and Pharaohs

                                       ... like Moses in the bulrushes
                                                             
                                                                                            ... hidden from pharaohs and kings 

                                                 ... butterfly hides her eggs among thistles

  6. Love this one, how beautiful! I like the idea of seeking a safe place to hide the precious eggs. The poor larvae though, hatching out in need of a good meal and encountering thistle prickles. Life could only get easier after that!
