By Allegra Spensieri, MSc student at Concordia University
I’m in disbelief
The most gorgeous female seen
Right in front of me
This is not tasty
Next time I’ll try a flower
What was I thinking?
Hi science people
I watch you write these each day
Please let me help you
Silly scientist
I don’t move for good reasons
I fly just for fun
How’d the human know
I’d love this new tattoo? See,
I’m Bond’s biggest fan
About the author:
Allegra is an MSs student in biology at Concordia University in Eric Pedersen’s lab. She is working on understanding the patch dynamics of the European common blue butterfly, a non-native species, to understand how it may continue to expand its range in North America. These photos were all taken during her field season in the summer of 2023, where she quickly found out that these butterflies don’t always behave as expected.
