As I admired the flora in Dyrham Park a National Trust located in Bath, Chippenham  South Gloucestershire, England. My eyes fell upon a beautiful red admiral butterfly perched atop a stunning blue globe thistle. The petals of this glorious thistle were a vibrant shade of blue, providing a perfect backdrop for the intricate patterns and shades of crimson that adorned the butterfly’s wings. The contrast between the butterfly’s delicate wings and the soft, spiky foliage of the plant was truly breathtaking. Witnessing this natural marvel in its habitat was a moment I will always cherish.
