A sea creature influenced by lippy flowers may seem odd, but I ask you, is it (or anything) really any odder than the Sarcastic Fringehead!?(Thanks to comic creator/arcane animal sleuth Isaac for introducing me to that one!)
This Curiotype is brought to you by the letter L.

That's a hell of a kissing fish.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, Terry, it is an "L" of a kisser!
ReplyDeleteWow! BIG little fish!! Dramatic and fun!
ReplyDeleteWow, I loved the link to the sarcastic fringe head...isn't Mother Nature amazing? This is fabulous....you're original each and every time!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Elizabeth & Sarah-- try as I might, I can't out-odd Mother Nature!
ReplyDeleteI don't know how big is this specimen but it seems to me quite big. But if your Labiate use a lipstick.......I am wondering how many cochineals have to be dried and boiled ........... :D
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to report that these lips are 100% au naturel. Save the cochineals!
