At first I thought it was another part of the flower, like the green core inside the pollen pods. I guess that’s what other insects venturing into it are supposed to think also. Must work, otherwise the bug wouldn’t be doing this.

A little color can balance a lot of gray. Hope this doesn’t violate the rules of monochrome Monday, but it’s mostly monochrome.

This is a Centaurea, a member of the Daisy family of flowers.
