We have solved the problem of how coconuts can make to Aurthur’s round table! Namely: The turtle clearly couldn’t have climbed or flown up to perch on the flower. Therefore, it was airlifted there by the bug. And a bug which can carry a turtle can clearly carry a coconut. Q.E.D.(that’s a term used in logic to mean Q.E.D.).
So, no African Swallows?
Plenty of swallows — they love eating bugs exhausted from carrying coconuts(easy to catch and make into a nice curry, being so considerate to bring fresh coconut milk) — albeit not the African kind, as they are non-migratory.
That shot of the butterfly on milkweed is breathtaking. Having a built-in straw would be sooo useful.
Oh, turtle love, there needs to be much more turtle love! That’s an adorable turtle.
There is also the mildly deranged penguin method (usually, admittedly, applied to beer volcanoes but should also work with plants): Excavate. Invert. Pour into open beak. Replace into hole in hopes of another vintage.
