These flowers look like something else altogether
Nature never fails to fascinate us with its incredible designs.
There are flowers that look like something else - an animal or even a human skull. Goodfullness has a list of these amazing blossoms.
Birds seem to be the most common species that these flowers are modeled after - or the other way around.
One such flower is Habenaria radiata, which is commonly known as the white egret flower. This variety of flower, indeed, takes on the appearance of an egret.
