A European peacock butterfly (*Aglais io*) is perched on a vibrant purple thistle flower. The butterfly's wings display bold eye spots in red, blue, and white, acting as a defense mechanism against predators. The thistle's spiky leaves and stems contrast with the softness of the butterfly's wings. Surrounding greenery provides a lush, blurred backdrop, highlighting the focal interaction between the butterfly and thistle. |
