C for Camouflage

 
 Many creatures resort to camouflage to conceal themselves from their preys or to confuse and confound their predators. The lizard which lives in the crevices of granite rocks has markings of granite. The spider on the plant has a perfect camouflage to catch her victims.
 But the butterfly Euploea core was not so clever. He just changed his name to" Common Crow" to evade his enemies!
 The beautiful Chrysothemis pulchella is blooming in my garden now. It is commonly known as Sunset Bells.
My thanks to Mrs.Nesbitt for the wonderful meme ABC Wednesday.
