Matching spots

I thought this orchid was interesting as it seemed like the spotted petals matched the leaves.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

It is as if the species has evolved to hide its flowers from certain creatures but not others. What a beauty!
