Daring butterfly. In MINAS GERAIS
No one dares to touch the spines of a treacherous cactus. You know very well that it might hurt badly when the skin is pierced by such a spine. Also animals – with some exceptions – prefer to avoid cactus. However… the butterfly in the picture managed to land on a cactus, in order to take some rest. Landing between the spines must be very dangerous, since spines may easily pierce the delicate wings.
The original picture was taken in September 2012
