Hi Mike,

It's the tail of an earwig sticking out the flower. I'm under the impression it was hiding for the rain (to no avail). At least it had it's back well protected ;-)

Hi Mousehill, beautiful shot with excellent balance a deeply saturated color. Yes it definitely looks prickly. Like the water drops in the composition. What exactly is that in the center of the flower, looks like some type of beetle with big pinchers.
