Butterflies in Embrace !

They have been there for long time. I could n't resist from grabbing my camera. Lost in love embracing each other they just sat on my Lychee tree forgetting the world.
I wondered who is male ? May be the black spotted one is. It is more beautiful when it spreads its wings so it could be the male. In animals and birds male is more beautiful. Perhaps in human beings too.. who knows.. With beard and hairy body the nature has decorated the male. Umm.. we cover our beauty and think ladies are more beautiful.. what a contrast !

A plant with semen smelling flower ! :)


Around this time - from October to December a creeper plant in our place blossoms and it smells like semen. But people are just put up with it and don't openly discuss about it. I have been searching for this plant for quite sometime. This time I caught it. It was right on top of our Temple peepal tree. It is a creeper plant going heights till the top .. So the smell spreads a kilometer away!. Yet I don't know local name or Botanical name. If I find I will update this.If any of you know please put it as a comment.

While searching over the net I saw many plants have this sort of smell. Somebody wrote that Bradford pears have this smell when in bloom. No idea about that. There was no picture of any plant so I thought it would help if I put it up. Surprisingly its flowers looked like sperm ! :)
