Rainbow Animal (Real and fantastic) Pictures

Rainbow colored butterfly.

A collection of rainbow-colored animals, both real and fantastic: the colors of the rainbow applied to creatures we know and to others that only exist in the imagination. Scroll down to see the full set.

The set begins with a butterfly whose wings fade from pink through yellow and green to turquoise, resting on a flower against a blurred pink background. Butterflies come back in flocks over fields and mountains. Then come the goats, three of them. The first is a real-looking one standing on grass, its coat running from yellow to pink and teal, its horns left gray. Two more goats follow, and the captions say the second is "more colorful" still.

The fantastic half is just as bright. A griffin spreads its wings against a cloudy sky, each feather a band of the spectrum, from red at the shoulder to violet at the tips. Ancient Greek writers described griffins, eagle in front and lion behind, as guardians of gold, so a rainbow one is a fitting guardian of something else. Elsewhere there is a zebra, a tree made of stones, panda cubs, two cats (one frozen mid-leap, orange at the head and turquoise at the paws, the other in neon colors) and a pair of crows. One crow perches on a mossy branch under a night sky full of stars and soft clouds, its feathers shading from blue through green and orange to violet.

The rainbow has long been a sign of passage between worlds: the Greeks gave it to Iris, the messenger of the gods, and the Norse imagined a burning bridge, Bifröst, linking the earth to the sky. Seen that way, painting an animal in all those colors is a small way of making it a messenger, and each image here can be taken as one. The post itself notes that the images were generated with the help of Google Gemini and other tools.
