Flowers growing on the BEACH??

in #nature6 years ago

I have since a young boy been in absolute awe of the way plants and trees grow in seemingly impossible conditions

But in sea sand? On the beach?

Getting saturated in salty sea water at very high tides?

And still thriving and producing flowers!

This was one of those exceptionally high Spring tides which not only covered the plants but washed a lot of them away!

A surprising find on the same stretch of beach as the flower. A beautiful and very much alive and kicking moth, some 500 meters from the sea bush!

I am wondering if my talented, fabulously, famous, friend and world acclaimed donkey brush artist @pricasso might be inspired by this moths beauty to immortalize it on one of his spiderweb canvasses?

Sort:  

As per your request my sire, the moth has been crafted in a most special manner.
