In this corner we have two beautiful butterflies. They are basking in the sunshine. Unfortunately, they decided to do so on top of the bee hives.
In the other corner, we have a hive full of happy bees. They are feeling frisky with the fresh spring air.
Everybody was enjoying the warm weather, until they noticed each other.
Then it was... "Let's get ready to RUMBLE!"
The bee comes out fighting, while the butterfly seems disinterested. Maybe he thought the bee wasn't in his weight class.
Now the bee is giving it the old one two.
In the end, the butterflies decided the best way to deal with the bee was to go incognito. The fight is over. Despite the bee's vigorous attacks the butterflies won the match.
Oh I love this awesome pics and interpretation. B
