aka The Bee and the Spider…
Author Marc Newman ◦
The drama took place on a Yellow Button (Chrysocephalum apiculatum)…
It wasn’t obvious to me, until I looked back at the photos on the monitor (the photos are in time sequence)…
She looked home free for a while but then she decided to continue into danger…
I think I saw her fly off at the end, thus ending the lesson…
