Yarrow

Common Yarrow, Achillea millefolium, of the Aster (Asteraceae) family is a familiar wildflower around the lake. I have recently and quite accidentally stumbled upon insects in relationship with flowers. I notice many tree leaves already munched on. It all puts me in awe of the interdependence of the species, of how this dance all works in harmony.
