These entries are unreal.

I had to go with Spoo. It was a hard decision but I simply can't get over that PS + tie combo to match that Monarch.

So, Spoo, did you get inspired by the tie and work backward from that, or did you see a picture of the monarch and realize that you had the requisite elements on the tie and PS racks?

If you want the honest truth, I forgot about the challenge until about 10m before I started to get ready in the morning. I googled "nature", saw a butterfly, then googled "monarch butterfly", found the pic, studied all the minutia, and realized I had all the elements. The hardest part about it was getting my dog to pose as the bee.
